Re: [Videolib] UCLA Case

That link to UCLA's news is incorrect. This should do it: http://www.newsroom.ucla.edu/portal/ucla/campus-to-re-start-streaming-of-154601.aspx Brown, Roger wrote: Hi, A link to the press release explaining UCLA's official position can be seen here: http://www.newsroom.ucla.edu/portal/ucla/campus-to-re-start-streaming-of-15 4601.aspx Legal discussions of various aspects of the case can be found online from Educause to Techdirt to the Sloan Consortium, as well as AIME's site. - - Roger Brown Manager UCLA Instructional Media Collections & Services 46 Powell Library Los Angeles, CA 90095-1517 office: 310-206-1248 fax: 310-206-5392 rbr...@oid.ucla.edu Message: 2 Date: Wed, 1 Jun 2011 13:43:43 -0400 From: Jessica Rosner <jessicapros...@gmail.com> Subject: Re: [Videolib] UCLA case To: videolib@lists.berkeley.edu Message-ID: <BANLkTin76Q1tE6Hgv=sf0zz1pftjqf4...@mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Hey I am all for that. I think some of their documents are on the AIME site.I can tell for a fact that 99% of the films they streamed did not have Public Performance Rights. Again the list of films they admitted to streaming as of over a year ago was in the 1700 range and included tons of Hollywood feature films, Foreign Films, Classic films and educational documentaries. They did not specifically indicate if they had streamed all those films in their entirety, but their claim was they had the right to and had clearly done it. I would really love to hear someone from UCLA talk about the list of films and how they did it.

It would be helpful to hear from someone at UCLA describe what they streamed and how they did it (did they use a proxy server so all students on campus have access and from home or just for specific courses through course management software? Did they stream titles in which they had paid for public performance rights or feature films? How many films did they stream?). Others on this list have made factual statements about what UCLA did, but I don't think I've heard from anyone at UCLA say what they did.
