Hi Dennis,
Yes, they are not always up to date ergo my caveat, “The site is not
infallible”. They don’t always list a purveyor even though you can go directly
to the purveyor’s website and find it. But still, given the number of films out
there they do a decent job. And when you can’t find or a

With a name like that I was all ready to test it and suggest canistream.it as
a purveyor of illegal streaming and downloads but it's actually a decent
website. The only problem I see is that they are not up to the date with
the latest releases and all the platforms. Some of mine from Nov
Hi Chris,
So you are saying that if anyone challenged us, which is fairly unlikely, we
would by Section 108 need to show the worn or damaged VHS tape?

The site is not infallible but you can link to a title and it will show you all
the pay per view vendors for movies and tv shows.
There are more than just Amazon, Netflix and iTunes listed there, e.g. Vudu,
GooglePlay, Xbox, Snag, etc.
We link to it for a variety of reasons at
The license agreement that the faculty member accepts when they sign up for
service will dictate what they can do with their subscription.
The last time I checked (2-3 years ago now) Netflix was for individual home use.
I would love to hear otherwise.

Contract ( in this case Netflix terms of service) is always going to trump
copyright but it seems to me that depending on number of titles a student
would use in a semester or year it might make sense for schools to
encourage and possibly subsize membership. There is nothing wrong with a

Dear All,
I’d also like to add that from a distributor’s perspective, we license
“personal” streaming rights to Netflix and our contract specifically excludes
educational/institutional streaming. This applies with all of our third-party
streaming partners, from GaiamTV to Vudu. Hoopla, Overdriv
Hello,
There has been numerous posts on this listserv about the use of Section 108,
and recycling vhs tapes.
I’m glad to know that many of you will be involved in the process to create a
best practice guide to be posted to ALA Connect. I hope guidelines for
discarding vhs tapes will also be in
Dear Kim,
Your Scholarly Communications Librarian is right. Terms of service of these
streaming companies say the subscription is for PERSONAL use only. The contract
law (one's subscription is a contract) trumps 110. Our faculty ask me all the
time what is the difference between bringing their
It probably technically goes against the terms of service, but then so does
having a subscription to the DVDS, but they don't seem to care that our billing
address is clearly the library.
IMHO, I would treat it as normal classroom use as long as they aren't sharing
their password, and therefore
Hiya Kim,
This is a very good topic. I'd be interested to see where this discussion
leads to, because I have concerns about what do when an instructor wants to use
a film for class that is not commercially available on DVD, but only available
via Amazon stream, NetFlix, or iTunes.

Hi all,
Is there any consensus on the legality of faculty using their own person
Netflix Streaming account in a face to face classroom situation. I have always
assumed it was fine. Access was legally acquired and would fall under 110(1).
