1) Yes.
2) No. I want to make music, not dispute algorithms. When I put my
nose in source code is to get paid, to bring bread and butter to the
table. When I'm, not paid, I like to make music. And biking, and
various fun things.
3) No. See 2).
4) No. I believe people has a right to earn a living.

I can assure that I can apply to my music any license
I want :-)
Exactly.
I chose a Creative Commons license Attribution, Share
alike
(CC-BY-SA) and I used this license to publish final mix, single
recordings tracks and Ardour project that are a sort of "source code"
of our music. This is my way to say thanks to developers who wrote
Ardour, Hydrogen, CALF and many others great software ad free
software.
And there can be a time also when one will want to make money. Why
not ?
Ciao.
