By law, as well as by intent, the pre-recorded videocassettes and DVDs available in stores throughout the United States are for home use only. Sales of pre-recorded videocassettes and DVDs do not confer any public performance rights upon the purchaser. The U.S. Copyright Act grants to the copyright owner the exclusive right, among others, “to perform the copyright work publicly” (United States Code, Title 17, Sections 101 and 106). Even “performances in ‘semipublic’ places such as clubs, lodges, factories, summer camps and schools are ‘public performances’ subject to copyright control” (Senate report No. 94-473, page 60; House report No. 94-1476, page 64). Accordingly, without a separate license from the copyright owner or its agent, it is a violation of federal law to exhibit pre-recorded videocassettes and DVDs beyond the scope of the family and its social acquaintances–regardless of whether or not admission is charged. Ownership of a pre-recorded videocassette or DVD does not constitute ownership of a copyright (United States Code, Title 17, Section 202). Companies, organizations and individuals that wish to publicly exhibit copyrighted motion pictures and audiovisual works must secure licenses to do so.This requirement applies equally to profit-making organizations and non-profit institutions such as prisons, hospitals and the like. Purchases of pre-recorded videocassettes and DVDs do not change their obligations. The copyright owner’s right to publicly perform his work, or to license others to do so, is exclusive. Any willful infringement of this right “for purposes of commercial advantage or private financial gain” is a federal crime. The first offense is punishable by up to one year in jail or a $25,000 fine, or both; the second and each subsequent offense is punishable by up to two years in jail or a $50,000 fine, or both. In addition, even innocent or inadvertent infringements are subject to substantial civil penalties.
