How can you tell who own the copyright of a DVD.
I am wanting to use a small clip from a DVD for medical purposes. This will be non profit making, but will be distributed to patients. The company that own the DVD was called Simitar Entertainment, but I believe they no longer exist.

Simitar were auctioned off. I can't remember who to. Another company will own the rights now.
I wanted to use 22 second clip of a piece of footage for a documentary I was producing a few years back. Even then they wanted £4k for what amounted to a locally produced dvd.
Is it any wonder that most view the whole copyright issue as a load of nonsense. The public should be allowed to use copyright material for reasonable cost according to the project intended.
