UCLA Will Resume Streaming Video After Legal Dispute
The University of California at Los Angeles has restored its streaming video service about two months after temporarily suspending the service amid complaints from an educational-media trade group.
The Association for Information and Media Equipment told UCLA in the fall that the university had violated copyright laws by letting instructors use the videos, some of which were full-length productions. UCLA decided that beginning this semester it would suspend the password-protected video-streaming service, available only to students in specific classes.
UCLA announced Wednesday (March 3) that it will restart streaming of instructional content. The university hopes material will be back up by the spring quarter, which begins March 29.
