[NFB-Talk] Movie Night!

Hello, while I am not Steve Cook, I believe I can answer a couple of these 
questions. To do a movie night over zoom, one must obtain the audio file 
which contains the movie and the audio description. This file can be shared 
over zoom using the screen share and played through whichever media player 
you want on your local computer. As for the dmca and other copyright 
issues. It is technically not in violation of copyright law if the content 
shared is only the audio. I believe there would be some issues if it was 
the entire movie, audio, video, and description which got shared to an 
audience. I am certainly not a lawyer, but this is how I understand thanks. 
I hope this helps.
