Dose any one know if the Magic Castle put something on their video tapes so you can't record from them ?

I don't think the Magic Castle will put DVDs of lectures together. The membership lets you attend the Sunday lectures and dvds could possibly violate the members cost of membership. To be a magician member, you have to audition and pay a pretty good sum to be a local magician and attend meetings. Now that being said, there are some magician produced DVDs from lectures are out there on the market but they are shot with the permission of the Castle, not produced by the Castle.
