Corrine covered most of the bases, but I would like to add one
additional point. The face to face teaching exemption, specifies that
it applies to "legally acquired material". It allows the campus media
center to tape tv shows only at the request of a faculty member and then
retain it for the 10/45 day period. It does not allow individual faculty
to record programs at home and use them in class. You may tape at home a
and use those tapes at home as allowed by the supreme court in Disney vs
Sony but once you bring those tapes to campus they are no longer
considered legally acquired and their use in not protected under the
HR 110a face to face teaching exemption. I think this distinction was
made because a media center would have less of an interest in holding on
to a tape after the 45 days have expired than would the individual
faculty member who might want to use it again the next semester.
    The AECT has several publications dealing with this issue.
