Lacrosse Game DVDs

[clo2400]

I am looking for high quality lacrosse on DVD. Does anyone know where I can buy good high school, NCAA, or MLL lacrosse games on DVD. Is anyone selling them???


Who here would be interested in buying lacrosse game DVDs? Answer the poll above...

[laxman1191]

ncaaondemand.com has tons of lacrosse games you can buy on high quality dvd, as well as every other ncaa sport

[clo2400]

thanks laxman...$24.99 do you guys think that is pretty steep?

[MaKiMaKi13]

yea it is pretty steep if you know where to look on the forums you'll be able to find em for cheap

other than buying from the NCAA or from the syracuse TV station you arent going to find much. those arent coaches films either, they are full TV broadcasts sans comercials.
there is a large network of people who trade games, but coaches game tapes (which is what you seem ot be looking for) are very hard to come by.

fwiw: unless you are the copyright holder buying and selling them is illegal, so discussion of that on here is extremely controlled

[clo2400]

yeah thats understandable. it seems like that ncaa website is the only place...ill keep looking though

Couldn't someone who has a lot of dvds of games just burn them and send out copies to people that want them? I think it would be legal if the owner of the dvd bought it and didn't sell the copied dvds. Therefore he wouldn't be making a profit so I dont think that would be illegal. Correct me if I'm wrong though

[clo2400]

yeah someone could do that, but who will pay for the dvds? not to many people will do that for free...

I'm no lawyer, but I believe that would still be pirating. Recall that Napster, Kazaa, etc. got sued by the Recording Industry Association of America for sharing copyrighted files. You're limited in sharing copyrighted material - do some research on the "fair use" doctrine. Unless it's for educational purposes (i.e. showing it to a team as the coach) or something like that, you can't just copy DVD's around. Though likely it would be awfully tough to discover and prosecute.

or if you have tivo or e-lacrosse is also a good place

[clo2400]

yeah tivo is a good idea, i feel like there is no official company that sells game tapes...do you think you could make money doing this?

Oh, ok thanks. I've done research into ways of not getting caught using limewire, torrents, and other stuff, but I've never seen the Fair Use doctrine. Thanks

get more people to vote so someone might start selling legit game tapes...

e-lacrosse is a decent website to watch some games, but overall its just highlights and weak camera work....
