[LM_NET] Target: School's showing movies-copyright

[Robert Depke <depke.robert@D46.K12.IL.US>]

On page 25 of the July issue of School Library Journal, Carrie 
Russell, in her copyright column, states that, "People are often 
surprised to learn that rental and individually owned copies of 
videos and DVD's can be shown in their entirety in the classroom.". 
Since we pay a movie license fee every year to comply with possible 
copyright infringement, I was wondering if anyone else had a good or 
bad copyright experience to share that might indicate the legal 
ramifications of not paying a license fee?
