Hi Deb!

Wouldn't the key word be "non-commercial"?

Yep. That would be it. I don't think anyone would argue the video was a commercial venture. No mass marketing, on-air ad buys or distribution was involved. Of course if music halls begin to be rented and the video shows up at screenings or concerts...that's a horse of a different color.

I doubt ASCAP or BMI will be knocking on anyone's door since the Greenwood song was a second generation element and not the purpose of the video. Now, if someone had been singing the Mickey Mouse Club song, Disney would be hacking heads.
