: : I have been in the video rental buisness ten years. I was once told by a distributor sales rep, after asking their boss, that adding to the content of the tape in such a manner that it changes the copywritten portion is in violation of that copywright. However, should additional content be placed on the tape in such a manner as to not change the copywritten material, it is not violating the copywright. The answer to the best of my knowledge...YES, before the FBI warning. : : Be advised, I do not practice law nor do I suggest anyone to take what I say as anything more than a topic of conversation. : Dear Gem Marchal, : Without taking any professional responsibility, it is my belief that non infringing matter may be added to a tape. : But how are you going to add it to the tape without duplicating the tape. : M.
