I just called Criterion and it seems they are streaming to institutions. They

Thanks for answering my stupid question. I am dealing with some indie docs
where the filmmakers as a practical matter can't really do their own
streaming and I am trying to figure out if institutions will just put up
their own site and what are best ways to do this . So far I have only been

Sorry but I am a total technical idiot. Does this mean they provide you
with the film in digized format and you stream it or they stream it and you
can access it?
Either way I am glad they are now in the game, now we all need to gang up

Jo Ann,
What does length of time you want to stream it mean? Does that mean the
period of time during which it will be available to students (e.g. a particular
semester or a few weeks during a semester during which students could access
the title through a CMS, etc.)? Or does it mean the total
It means the length of the license to stream. They offered me up to a 5 year
stream. You load the MP4 to your streaming server and can stream it for the
term of the license.
