1. Backing up cd-roms is a really common, especially in learning environments. It seems a little ridiculous to not be allowed to back up important cds for personal use. To sell copies is obviously a crime, but just for yourself it doesn't seem wrong.
2. Downloading audio clips from MP3.com to use in the classroom is fair use. GOOD! I'm glad there is not a hidden restriction on this one.
3. Using video takes or old tv shows in productions for students seems like that would be against the copyrights. It was good to find out that it wasn't illegal.
4. The Holocaust survivor interview is an interesting one because I didn't realize that if it was all for educational use, and posted like that, anyone has rights to it.
5. The use of Disney video tapes to enterain children in a public place, being illegal, is ridiculous!
6. The compilation of VHS tape clips used for learning being illegal is also a little weird. I am starting to lose sight of the fair use and unfair use line.
7. Digital pictures in public places, posted online, should never be illegal. Because they are the students' photos, they have the right to them.
8. The students doing a digital yearbook and using full songs as background music is illegal use. This make sense sort of because of full songs, so the students should switch to song clips anyways.
