Bringing Trials to your Desktop

Here's something not typically seen in most library budgets today, but may become the line-item of the future.  CourtroomLive is a new product that provides live and on-demand video coverage of noteworthy trails, directly to your computer.  From the homepage:

Viewers can simultaneously view video of the proceedings while examining digital snapshots of evidence presented in court. Video is used for trial preparation, research, and educational purposes by a range of legal and business professionals, from litigators to in-house counsel to financial analysts to educational institutions.

A joint product of ALM and CVN, it could be a great teaching tool, or used to scope out the style of opposing counsel, conduct jury research, and many other applications.
