    That's pretty handy to find. A colleague and I are looking into publishing some online video content, so it's helpful to have access to this. Thanks!

    "It does not include any public domain or Creative Commons usage issues or recommendations."

    Is there any video in the public domain? By law everything is copyrighted as soon as it's created, right? The copyright duration is longer than video has been in existence ... well almost.

    Creative Commons is a license which depends on copyright to work. So fair use applies to media with any CC license just the same as any media without it, right?

    The video should be edited to be half its length. It doesn't say anything useful until about half way through. Did they have to make it longer (and more boring) so that their fair use clips constituted a small fraction of the running time? The actual examples were more illuminating than the talking heads.

    I agree - the video sucks, but the PDF is worthwhile, right?
