Pretty ironic, eh? You could argue that people who present at NECC are receiving a valuable platform for their presentation, so it's only fair that ISTE is compensated with something of value. They've decided that the price of your fame is their ownership of the recording. Is that not a fair trade? I'm not sure that ISTE is out of line here, legally, but it does not seem aligned to their mission. It will be interesting to hear what they say when people ask for permission. It also protects ISTE from copyright violations. People often present things that contain copyrighted material. Even if the presenter innocently gives broadcast permission, is ISTE still liable? Miguel,
