I'm not clear on why you are concerned about securing permission... this
seems to me to be about as clear as a fair use case gets. You aren't
providing copies to the students for personal use, you are using them in a
classroom, and you are disposing of your copies frequently.
Others care to weigh in?
Cheers,
Steven

UF just bought a dishnetwork dish and we are getting 6 foreign-language
channels with more to come. Unfortunately the language-lab cable system
drop is in a classroom, not the open lab, so would like to plan to tape 6
hours a day of each channel (erasing tapes after they are a few days old)
so that current material is always available for viewing in the open lab.
How do other labs handle this kind of situation?
I have in the past negotiated with Univision and Deutsche Welle for taping
rights, and they were very generous--but, ironically, I was never asked to
tape the material! The language departments or individual instructors did
that.
The stations we are receiving are NHK, Phoenix Chinese, Al Jazeera, CNN en
espanol, TV5, and Record. We are hoping to add RAI, Israeli Network, and a
Russian package, too. Are these all easy to deal with?
