thanks for this prompt, Jessica -- After digging deeper I discovered Janus offers nothing for any of their titles -- criterion-us offers a year lease (with restrictions) -- am still asking about how many of their titles this applies to
At this point swank is the only reasonable fee for what in our environment could be several hundred films per year, different titles each semester . . . it seems like otherwise it's going to be a long time before feature films are within our range. . . especially when you add in the amount of time it takes to track down each one. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jessica Rosner" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, May 13, 2013 1:43:49 PM Subject: Re: [Videolib] Permission needed Um which Criterion and which film? I can't imagine either Criterion USA or Criterion/Janus won't do streaming license.
