[Frameworks] Going rate for licensing film footage to large museums

[Robert Haller]

Dear Bruce,

I don¹t understand the question. Some museums prefer to show a recycling DVD
instead of 16 or 35 mm films‹in galleries. If a film is to be shown two or
three times a week in a theater, the rate would be different. The Museum of
the Moving Image or MoMA have had experience in both options. The problem
with repeatedly showing a film print is that wear and tear degrade prints
rapidly (more than 10 to 20 times), requiring replacements. DVDs have much
less of this problem. Does this address your concerns? -- Robert Haller
