We've seen on the list some discussion of Blu-Ray beforeŠ and the bundling of a standard DVD with a Blu-Ray in the initial release of some feature films. But now as I'm doing my annual order of the Academy Award nominated films DVD purchasesŠ I am seeing UltraViolet and/or a digital copy also being bundled for a large number to titles.
In some cases it appears to be the only way to get the standard DVD. I'm curious (but not yellow - a reference to my earlier post) what other video librarians are doing about UltraViolet and digital copies being bundled with DVDs How are you handling this change in distribution? (Sorry, I am not interested in Blu-Ray discussion, just digital copy and UltraViolet) Thanx for your thoughts. -deg deg farrelly, ShareStream Administrator/Media Librarian Arizona State University Libraries Hayden Library C1H1 P.O.

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.
