Ok.

You see, I'm still not sure about the license and I'm glad there is a mailinglist to discuss such things. Maybe I will just forbid commercial at all.
Sharing is one thing but giving the music away so that others can make money with it is another. Or maybe I do it like the GPL and whoever sells my music is forced to announce that you can download it for free :) (just a joke)
