I know a thread exists about this topic, but I can't find it. Oh well.

I was linked to the NCAA on Demand site and submitted a request to be able to purchase the 2010 championship game on DVD. Here's the response I got back:

QUOTE
Thanks for your email. We have this game, but it is not in the queue for production due to limited demand. We would be glad to produce any game with a minimum bulk order of 25 units per game at $24.99/unit. If you cannot furnish a bulk order of this size we can dub games straight to DVD for a cost of $150 per game. As a disclaimer, there would be no production with the straight dub (no case or disc artwork, chapters, menu screen, etc...). It would be a DVD dub of the game in a plain jewel DVD case.

Please let us know if this interests you.

Thanks,

NCAA On Demand


So I guess it comes down to whether we would be able to gather 25 orders...

Can we reproduce the DVD and add the production value ourselves for the $150?

I would assume there would be a copyright applied to the video that prohibits the reproduction and sale of the video. Either way, I plan on ripping the DVD to a digital format so I can play it anywhere

How about giving them away?

I dont know the letter of the copyright, so I can't say. One would assume that making copies for free wouldn't constitute copyright infringement, but to me this seems like a copyright "grey area". Perhaps someone with greater knowledge of copyright laws dealing with copies of a televised program could chime in?
