Championship DVD...

[SOL]

Is there any talk of Championship DVD, or a year in review DVD like Sports Illustrated does after the Super Bow? 

It might be kind of fun to watch those last 4 games on rainy day in July...

[siouxczech29]

I'd be interested in the entire season on DVD

[Godsmack]

I'd buy one even if it only came out on VHS or Betamax!

Wouldn't it be a great keepsake to have...who would be in charge of something like this: UND Hockey, or REA, who?

Right.  And I noticed from the last Through These Doors, that the actual ESPN broadcast was not used, which leads me to believe that ESPN did/would not grant UND a license to use that footage.

But UND could replay the title game at the victory gathering last Monday?

Correct.

Doesn't make sense to me. What is the difference?

Let me use this example.  If you filmed the discovery of Big Foot, you might not have a problem with an acquaintance showing that video to a limited number of viewers.  On the other hand, you likely would have a problem with that acquaintance selling copies of that video to the entire general public for profit.

Licensing agreements are not one in the same, some are limited, some are exclusive, some are of a limited timeframe.  I'm speculating here: either ESPN granted a limited license or simply did not care that UND showed a video of the game during a championship celebration.  However, if anyone plans to market and sell DVDs of the ESPN broadcast to the general public for an expected profit, that person would be wise to speak with and obtain a license before using ESPN's footage.

I didn't think Through These Doors was being sold to the public.

Correct.  It also is not played one single time in front of a live audience.

That'd be awesome!  A lot of great games and plays this year.  In hindsight, I wish I could have sat back and enjoyed it a little more while it happened!  Although I have my fingers crossed, I doubt we see too many (dare I say any) more 34-win seasons at UND.

If the seniors, Stecher, and Thompson are the extent of our losses this year, maybe Luke, I like our possibilities for next year. Could be a pretty special year.

Correct.

There are many nuances to licensing intellectual property, and particularly college sports events where there are numerous interested parties: universities, conferences, leagues, broadcasters, etc. 

Like I said, I haven't seen the licensing agreement(s) between ESPN, NCAA, NCHC, UND, etc.  I was just trying to answer another poster's question about a DVD of the championship game.

If you want to actually learn about those nuances in the context of the national title game instead of trolling your way through a legit thread, I suggest you contact ESPN's licensing department: http://disneystudiolicensing.com/who-do-i-contact-regarding-licensing-materials-from-espn-or-abc-sports/

Someone at UND should also be able to confirm this for you.

Midco should be looking at doing some kind of season in review video. Would need to get footage from CBS Sports and ESPN, but would definitely have a market for such a product.  They also have all the coaches show content they could use to fill out a product in to the 1 hour to 75 minute range.

Trolling? I wasn't "trolling", I seriously did not understand the rationale for approving one request and denying another. I will leave the legal judgements to UND's legal staff.

Yup. Although highlight videos are fun, a more thorough recap of the season with some substance would be cool too!

I would be willing to bet that the NCAA has some licensing agreement with ESPN to sell championship DVD's if there was a high demand for them.

I wouldn't doubt that for a second. I hope it or something similar happens to commemorate #8.

I found the full frozen 4 games on youtube.  You can download youtube downloader and then you could burn them to a DVD. Here are the links

Championship https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-kd0UHZ2j0

Semi final https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Auc0N5B05s

If anyone finds the Michigan and Northeastern game available to download please let me know. They are available on ESPN3 to watch but Im not sure how to download them or if if its even possible.

In Benny's defense, it did seem like it. I was having a hard time understanding how you couldn't grasp using video for a one time thing over mass marketing it for profit either.

I would start by contacting the University first and see what would need to be done. I'm guessing if they get enough requests for it, they would put in a request to ESPN (through the NCAA because lets not forget, the NCAA needs their share) to start the process.

Even using it one time could be construed as a violation of copyright law.
