What a cool channel...

Just watched the David Bowie Space Oddity clip - gee, he looked like an alien back then (guess that was the idea biggrin)

Good quality videos...

They may have to get clearance. At the time the agreements would not include digital or internet distribution. And from what I understand new media has to re-negotiated. (this led to some people involved in tv shows to get some money for their part in the shows. In some cases an actor got paid for making the show and nothing else even when the show was on tv for decades! )

they need clearance since it's there channel and advertised etc.... re airing is just like showing reruns or releasing dvds or whatever from the show. They just can't include prince. Just like the Live Aid dvd release, Led Zeppelin blocked their inclusion because they stunk, plant was off key and Page was off his rocker

It was a playback performace and they have no rights to original recordings.
