Not a lot of sales with those restrictions. #2 and 3 are bizarre mishmosh of various uses.
Also are they selling this title retail or through third party vendors to individuals? As I posted many times they can restrict a sale by contract but they can't do it after the fact or reduce rights otherwise acceptable under 209 & 210 unless they make it explicit at point of sale and control all sales. I assume you are taking a pass. On Thu, Dec 13, 2012 at 4:21 PM, Bergman, Barbara J < [email protected]> wrote: > Yes, these are the exact words found on the website for a newly released > DVD.

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.
