Orphan DVD's

I made 50 DVD's for a choir concert I filmed and I sold about 20 or so to the performers and event organizers.

Therefore I have about 30 that aren't doing anything sitting around in my room with no one to buy them.

I was wondering what to do with them. The 20 I sold covered my overhead cost and made me a little bit of money but I don't think I'll have much luck selling the others.

I was thinking I may donate the remaining 30 to the local PBS affiliate to use as free swag in their annual donation drive but I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to get rid of the rest. The PBS thing could be advantageous as publicity for my home grown video production company although it wouldn't net any direct profit.

Any suggestions on how to liquidate some orphan DVD's?
 
All the music is public domain so licensing shouldn't be a problem unless there's a difference between public domain for video and public domain for live performance.

What music? Most "public domain" music today is performed from (copyright) modern editions. Most musicians can't read the old (public domain) scores. Do you have performance rights release from the the performer(s) for distribution?
