said by gaforces:Teachers are the worst ip offenders there are, and it's legal.
They have no respect for ip, cause they can get it free.
You are clearly mistaken.
The reason why schools can copy "freely" is because the educational institution already pays a blanket license that allows them to copy what they need for educational purposes.
It's called "Access Copyright" in Canada, and there's undoubtedly a similar licensing scheme in the states.
