Thanks Steve. I have been directed to our legal department and they (get this) have a Law Student intern that they would like to have research this topic! So, I think that going forward, I should have a mountain of information that may or may not be helpful… But regardless, I appreciate your help and am grateful that I can rely on this site and experts such as yourself to assist me with helpful advice.
Thanks again.

Hello all! I’m new to the Cow community and video somewhat. I am a multimedia designer for a large Health organization (28,000 employees). I create flash animations, web interfaces and video projects. Any music for my projects is always royalty free, but we have an issue at hand and I am unclear as to the solution.

With the prevalence of simple video editing software and the determination of my fellow employees, videos of the inspirational, educational and instructional types are cropping up on our internal network frequently. That’s not a problem, but the accompanying copyrighted music is!

My question is, are we publicly displaying the videos if they are only viewable by our internal employees via our secured network and not via our public websites?

If so, then it will be up to me to inform the entire organization of the copyright laws and the consequences of their infringement. While at the same time coming up with viable royalty free audio library for such projects as mentioned above.

I’ve searched and searched and it’s all getting confusing to me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much!
