We ordered a DVD via Amazon with the intention of using it for 
classroom/educational purposes only.  No lending off campus.  There were 
no license restrictions indicated on the Amazon site for the item.  
After it shipped I received an e-mail indicating it was for home use 
only, no educational, library use, etc.  When it arrived there is a 
sticker on the plastic wrap indicating this as well. What are people's 
opinions about these having the weight of licensing?

Thanks
Mark

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.
