In the US you can use any LEGAL video in a Real class
( ie one that is limited to registered students and not open to the
whole campus population) I know of know FBI warning
specifically prohibiting this and if some distributor put one on ,
they were just trying to scare some one. Outside the US
this is different but this is one of the GOOD parts of US copyright
I am sure many people on the list have a copy of the " face to
face " teaching exemption if you need one
