Hi Dan,

You obviously understand the issues involved with selling copyrighted videotapes via the Internet ("I think the point about the tapes is VERY important on understanding who A@P is.") Although the folks I spoke with at ABC News, the Discovery Channel and ABC New's video fulfillment house (Federal Document Clearing House) could not recollect giving someone permission to re-sell their copyrighted programs, it is "possible" that A@P's team of lawyers did negotiate and secure such rights. (Although it would very, very unusual for them to grant such permission, anything is possible) These parties were all going to check out their records, and the site which is advertising these videos, to ensure that everything is on the up and up.

In the meantime, maybe we should record "ER" tonight and sell the tapes on the Internet. Or would that be copyright infringement?
