First, if you rip a clip to show in a classroom, it doesn't really matter
if you rip from vhs to DVD...I'd contend that it would still fly under

I think TEACH qualifies in either sense. The law does not say that the course

Isn't there another aspect of TEACH that is relevant-that is, that it speaks

But the LOC exemption for breaking encryption referred to the portions

Exactly. The DMCA thing is not part of TEACH. But now it is legal to break
encryption for particular purposes, and the use would be covered by TEACH. The
amount does not have to be fair (thought it probably would be), just comply
with TEACH parameters. TEACH parameters are vague, but they are
It would not have been covered under TEACH until the LOC broadened the
rules, since previously any breaking of encryption was
limited to film classes, however they did. You do want to make sure the clip

Actually Non Theatrical is a phrase which is really from peak of film

This would be covered by TEACH, as long as the other requirements are met.

Hi Jacqueline
The recent DMCA ruling is basically about exemptions for circumventing DVD
encryption for the purpose of taking out short clips for use in teaching
(or other academic enterprises). That's all. The laws relating to the
specific USES of those clips are another matter altogether. Gen
I am too tired to find the link, but I am sure Michael or Gary can, but last
year the Library of Congress issued new guidelines which basically said you
could break encryption to use clips in a manner that would normally qualify
for "fair use" so assuming it is "reasonable" clip and I don't want to

Theatrical tends to apply to a movie theater operated for profit. These
theaters charge admission most of the time. I operated a theatrical venue for

Would the DCMA "Exemptions from Prohibition on Circumvention of Technological

course page? I'm thinking no.

Dear All,
I agree that consistency between vendors would be desirable and these
types of questions will become more complex as formats evolve from DVD/
PPR to digital licensing for campuses. My understanding of PPR has to
do with contractual definitions, actually, which probably vary from
