MPAA Suggests Teachers Videotape Movies

In a strange turn, the MPAA has suggested that teachers record movies using a camcorder pointed at flat screen tv's in order to use copyrighted material in the classroom. The clip is interesting, only for the fact that the thinking here is somewhat hypocritical and ironic. We can't use the material directly from the DVD in our classroms for educational purposes, but we CAN videotape the tv? Life is strange in the world of education...

Here's the clip.
