Checks and wire transfers take longer and are more labor intensive,
because they have to pass through a number of hands. The problem is not
with the filmmakers, but rather with the requirements of PayPal. I
wonder what would happen if I used another email address, like gmail or
something? They are pretty smart, so their system would probably see
the same CC associated with multiple email addresses and correctly
assume that we are trying to get around their bank acct. requirement,
regardless of how stupid it is.

I work with a number of independent filmmakers and they are just
selling their own film or films. They can't really afford to set up CC
accounts for just a film or two. They are always happy to take checks
or wire transfers.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues
relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control,
preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and
related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective
working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication
between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and
distributors.
