Hi Nahum and all, Nahum asked " has anyone ever purchased "only" streaming rights?" I suspect that this is the model that libraries are all going to go in the sunset of analog media use.
So the related topic of PPR in the streaming only age is also one that libraries are confronting. I believe that AIME v. UCLA touched on the topic of PPR for streaming media. There are probably other cases that relate to this issue that others can point out. One of many blog postings from the library community on the AIME v. UCLA case can be found here: "A Copyright Victory: Video Vendor Case Dismissed!"

Today's Topics: 1. Re: srtreaming rights (Jessica Rosner) Hi Jessica I didn't get an answer for my query Its not a question what is legal or what are the rules in USA, but one of Common sense if I understood Laura's query is that what happens if your professor wants, only to stream a film? Without a copy in the library ? And then stream it in "face to face" (Library use) or in a seminar for guests (PPR) so in the case of a university/college the streaming fee should include PPR In case of a university library purchasing only streaming rights, who is going to use the film? Not the university public? During the Year 2013 I sold to 80 Academic libraries including 60 in North America the film "One Day After Peace" all except one purchased PPR, 3 asked and received streaming rights for an extra $100, any library that has the film and will want to get streaming rights I'll ask for only $100. I would like to hear the opinion of librarians & other distributers if I'm right, has anyone ever purchased "only" streaming rights? cheers Nahum Laufer http://onedayafterpeace.com/index.php http://docsforeducation.com/ Sales Docs for Education Erez Laufer Films Holland st 10 Afulla 18371 Israel ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Mon, 3 Feb 2014 14:28:53 -0500 From: Jessica Rosner <maddux2...@gmail.com> Subject: Re: [Videolib] srtreaming rights To: videolib@lists.berkeley.edu Message-ID: <CACRe6m-BSgA5bT90FERjgL9mNEbpNueJt=7cwhn9gbp+jys...@mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Also to clarify you do not need PPR for a library to own/ circulate a copy. Now if you do not sell your films retail it is a moot point but librarians are understandably sensitive on this issue.
