Practice question: Other Statutory Limitations

Multiple Choice Medium

Practice question

A school records an entire feature film from the general cinema repertoire and relies solely on Section 184.1(f). Does educational status alone overcome that provision's feature-film restriction?
  1. Yes; every school may record every full feature film under that paragraph.
  2. Yes; the recording automatically becomes the school's original work.
  3. No; because no school recording is ever mentioned in the Code.
  4. No; that specific provision excepts such audiovisual works except for brief excerpts.
  5. Yes; deletion requirements apply only to banks.
