In answering the questions by many clients who sell to educational institutions, libraries, and wholesale, here are the price range we see for each channel.
[1] License to public and high school libraries: Usually twice the rate as the private home use version, between $39 to $69 per DVD. This does not include screening rights for inside classrooms, but not auditoriums or libraries, which clients individually negotiate based on the size of the audience. Clients have asked for $1 per anticipated audience, so a 100-person screening event would charge $100 + the cost of the DVD license.
[2] Academic and educational Institutions. Some clients have two levels here, depending on institution size. Two-year community colleges usually are charged between $75 to $125, and large 4-year institutions at $150 to $350. The pricing varies depending on the length of the content, and if there are extra materials or handbooks (i.e. in digital format on a separate disc) included. This license also includes classroom screenings, which on an institutional campus can be hundreds of students, but not public screenings.
[3] Wholesale. These are the volume discounts we normally see from clients selling multiple units from their e-commerce stores. For retailers, the discounts are the same, except the minimum quantity is usually 10 units.
2-5 copies: 10% discount
6-10 copies: 15% discount
11-25 copies: 20-25% discount
26-50 copies: 30-33% discount
51-100 copies: 40% discount
100 copies plus: 40-50% discount
