You are, of course, welcome to offer your clients what you want. If they wanted you to hang upside down from the rafters to capture the service, then I'm sure there would be a market fo it at a price. But here's the thing - we have the opportunity to say 'no' to requests and I personally would only do work that I wanted to do.

So I would once again stress that there is no right or wrong answer to what should be included or how long a DVD is. But there is a right or wrong answer in terms of what you, as a creative professional, offer clients. If the gig ain't right, I wouldn't do it. So for me personally there is a right answer and that's that I would be prepared to do for the client. I wouldn't want to offer 2 hours of essemtially uncut video and would make this clear in any prior communitcations.

As a creative, I retain the right to provide only that which I am happy to provide as agreed at inititation. If the client doesn't want what I am prepared to provide, then I will work with another client (or more specifically, they won't chose me).

One doesn't have to offer everything.
