Here are some of the best online destinations where you can download public domain videos.

Since the files distributed over peer-to-peer networks are primarily copyrighted works, there is a risk of liability for downloading material from these networks. To avoid these risks, there are currently many "authorized" services on the Internet that allow consumers to purchase copyrighted works online, whether music, ebooks, or motion pictures. By purchasing works through authorized services, consumers can avoid the risks of infringement liability and can limit their exposure to other potential risks, e.g., viruses, unexpected material, or spyware.
The Metropolitan Museum of New York just released into the public domain more than 394,000 images from its collection. Dan Piepenbring filtered through the newly released database, sorting to show only books, and published a selection of the most interesting images from the 2,701 results on the Paris Review.
The use of artwork involves not only works of fine art such as paintings, sculptures and photographs, but also graphics, book illustrations, animation, comic strips and clip art. The Internet has made accessing art much easier, but do not assume that just because something is easy to copy that it is legal to copy.
Illustrations in books and magazines are typically separately created and copyrighted. Do not assume that because the text of a book is in the public domain, the illustrations are as well. For example, a Shakespeare play may be in the public domain, but original illustrations created in 1982 for a reprint of the play would still have copyright protection.
Much of the material used in teaching is copyrighted, including computer software, books, music and photographs. Thus, copyright law restricts our rights to copy, display, perform and distribute these works without permission. Often we must obtain permission from the copyright owner to use the works. Sometimes, a work is in the public domain, available for all to use freely or our use is a "fair use," allowing us to use the works without the copyright owner's permission. Each of these situations is discussed separately, below.
Books almost always contain copyrightable materials, including text, photographs and illustrations. The selection and organization of public domain materials into a collective work may also be separately copyrightable. These works can be individually written, co-authored or written by institutional or corporate entities. An anthology may have one editor, but contain several shorter independently copyrighted works within it. It is also important to remember that the portion of the book you want to use may itself have been copied by the books' author(s) with or without permission. If so, you will need to seek out the original source of the material to secure permission for your intended use. If you are trying to find the copyright owner through the publisher, be aware that the same work may have more than one publisher depending upon the format of the work - hard back, paper back, North American rights, foreign language/country rights, reprints in digests or anthologies, etc. Electronic books - or e-books as they are known - typically originate in print form and are copyrightable. In any event, the copyrights for electronic books are treated no differently than printed books. Never store an e-book or similar electronic text on a website or other computer format accessible to others. 2ff7e9595c
