For your collective knowledge
Docs for Education is proposing the following terms for 3 year license for
streaming,
3 years because who knows what will be the law in 3 years no need to buy
longer term today, you can notice that if you already have PPR license then
we are asking only $100 for the streaming I believe that is fair. Any body
asking more is trying to make unfair money 
$175 for library & classroom use.

$250 for public screenings when no admission fee is charged.

$500 for screenings with paying audiences.

Shipping and handling fee is $6.

$350 DVD and streaming rights with 3 year license from institution's own
internal server.

$100 Streaming rights for institutions with 3 year license from
institution's own internal server that already purchased the DVD with Public
Screening rights.

$175 Streaming rights for institutions with 3 year license from
institution's own internal server that already purchased the DVD with only
Library use.
These prices are for all titles at http://docsforeducation.com/ 
except "One Day After Peace" see http://onedayafterpeace.com/index.php
which is sold only as PPR for $300 
Lets have a peaceful 2013

Well from the point of view of the rights holder it is not about enhanced
services but about enhanced rights. It is obviously different to own a
physical copy that can be used in the classroom which is basically covered
by the "face to face" exemption and circulated by the library to streaming
it online for students to watch from anywhere over a long period.

There have been two major legal cases on it but the results are not that
helpful. In the UCLA Case where UCLA streamed thousands of titles and one
the US distributors sued them, the case was tossed on issues that had
nothing to do the right to stream ( mostly the standing of plaintiff who
owned the US rights but was not the overall rights holder who was not a
party).

The Georgia State case is a little closer but involved the streaming of
articles or book chapters rather than films. When the case was first brought
by a group of small presses GSU was streaming entire works but changed it's
policy immediately after the suite was filed. In the end while the judge
ruled mostly in favor of Georgia State, she had also said that no more than
10% of a written work could ever be covered as "fair use" in online
streaming. The case had a lot of other issues including the issue of if
universities could stream a  work if the rights holder did not have a
streaming option. The publishers are appealing many of the issues and as it
directly contradicts previous rulings like Kinkos and Michigan books it is
likely to be taken up by the Appeals court.

For the record the California Newsreel rates are actually pretty low since
they offering what appears to be a lifetime license.

Keep in mind that many distributors literally don't even own  the rights to
license many of their titles as it was generally not included in older
contracts so it is tricky for them.

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. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective 
working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication 
between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and 
distributors.
