Oh no Bob this is very, very different and studios will not agree. It would
be as if iTunes continued to stream all a studios films years or anytime
after its contract expired to new customers. The studios licensed places

A third party, iTunes, is granting the perpetual right to view the studio's
program if you purchase the download, not rent it. If you buy a standard def
version and you want the HD version you will need to purchase another download.

Hello Michelle,
A few things that come to mind:
The Da Vinci Code and it's sequel, Angels and Demons
All the President's Men
Conviction
The Ghost Writer
Also--a couple of new documentaries including The Flat and Searching for
Sugar Man is essentially about trying to find out who he was based o

Individual rights to download or watch are completely different from the
right to allow a third party to stream it forever. I can not envision a
scenario in which the studios will ever agree to this. I can easily see
them setting up their own or even a shared system to allow non download

Well, major studios are already making perpetual streaming rights available...
through iTunes among others. There are no term limits on the files downloaded
at purchase but there are significant digital rights management controls
encrypted in the files to prevent file sharing, etc. Short of encr
I'm purchasing streaming rights only and get perpetual, lifetime, life of
format (whatever phrase the vendor wants to use) rights whenever I can. In most
cases, I buy the DVD along with the rights for loading on our own server, but

It is always more complicated with feature films and foreign rights
holders. In the old days no contract really covered streaming or selling a

Newsreel's understanding of this issue has always been that we have the right
to sell you a license to make a file and to migrate that file (make a copy of

Film has always been much more complicated rights wise than music or
written works. Take it for granted the studios will simply never agree to
sell perpetual streaming but then they are most likely to have their work

At the University of Connecticut we purchase streams on demand for classes with

Do librarians prefer DVDs over streaming? Are any schools ONLY
purchasing streaming rights these days or do I still have a few more
years left selling DVDs?
As an indie filmmaker, I think it might be difficult to offer

Perpetual DSL would go a long way toward easing my workload. The more titles we
get from different vendors, the more work, the harder to track.
I'll go back to a suggestion I made a while ago on this list for filmmakers and
distributors to get together and make your equivalent of an iTunes store
With all the discussions going on about desired pricing flexibility, I'd like
to bring up another collector request that is arising more and more- digital

Thanks Jessica. I've found Mike DiCerto's name on the Sony website and here's
his email if anyone else is interested: 'mike_dice...@spe.sony.com' .
You're right on target about Les Intouchables being a Weinstein Company,
something I didn't see on the flyer, and Swank does in fact have the PPR

this list have posted their contact info but I don't have it.
I assume INTOUCHABLES is Swank as it is the Weinstein Company.
In general you want to know who released the films in theaters to know who
has PPR rights.

I'm looking to obtain the PPR for these two European films for a film series

primary distributor of PPR for European films which would make my life so much
easier?
Thanks everyone.
