Does this seem like a fair offer? Are other institutions paying similar fees for the right to stream video and audio?" Just my two cents, but I think that the publishers should be paying US to do the work of converting this stuff to streaming format! They should give it away in the same way they do with the cassette tapes! I have been granted free permission to stream audio on our password-protected LAN from three different publishers, but this has required a great deal of work on my part.
