New DVD Copyright Exemption for Educational Purposes

I'm on vacation for another week, but that doesn't mean I'm not trying to keep up on the news of the day -- and what a day!

"The U.S. Copyright Office on Monday promulgated a number of new exemptions to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, including one allowing university staffers and students to hack DVD content and display it for educational purposes," including in student documentaries, according to InsideHigherEd.com.

I think this just made my job a little bit easier.  No, a lot easier.

Thanks, Copyright Office.
