Re: [Videolib] DVD companies
They are both bootlegger/ Pirates. A few tell tale signs Liquidation lists all titles as region free The major US rights holders NEVER put out region free. In a more common sense issue there is really no chance that a web site you never heard of has exclusive copyrighted major rights holder product. Some studios now sell direct, some have made exclusive deals with TCM and a few other large places but each of these lists shows that are clearly NOT public domain. The other huge sign is that neither lists the studio which any legitimate release would have. One last thing is that I loved THE BIG VALLEY but only seasons 1 2 have been legally released.

Re: [Videolib] DVD companies
Also, if you look at their FAQ section, the answer to how they have titles never released before is: We have many Limited Edition DVD Box Sets that the 'big guys' overlook or are simply not interested in selling. The entire purpose of our website is to provide otherwise unavailable films or television shows to the serious collector.

Re: [Videolib] Humor? DVD Licensing
Follow-up: I talked with the filmmaker and clarified their intentions. All is good now. As I suspected, they just really haven't done DVD sales to libraries before. ~Barb 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.

Re: [Videolib] Humor? DVD Licensing
I kind of suspected that too. The language was kind of like a mixed up cut and paste. Glad it worked out.
