<VV> Graphic and vidio archive

[Western Canada CORSA]

Everything I listed was broadcast over the public airwaves, which means that
anyone could have recoreded it for their own personal use at no cost.  The
lone exception is the high res version of the video from YouTube, and the
author sent me the copy with the understanding that this is precisely what I
intended to do with it.  Further, I am in no way attempting to make a profit
doing this.  My understanding of current copyright laws in Canada says that
I am not breaking the law.

Regards,
Joel

Sharing videos with a few friends is one thing.  Distributing them to anyone
and everyone is different.  The people who made some of the programs on your
list are working for a living.  Copying their work without paying is no
different than not paying the plumber who fixes your bathroom or the
mechanic who fixes your Corvair.  If you have distribution rights to these
videos there are plenty of sites that will host them.  If you don't have
rights, it's stealing.  --J.B.
