Re: [linux-audio-user] Specifying the license when posting music?

well, if there are answers to your reservations, i guess they would lie in this section of the "Share Music" license (which at least *sounds* like a good idea, don't you think?): "# You may not exercise any of the rights granted to You in Section 3 above in any manner that is primarily intended for or directed toward commercial advantage or private monetary compensation. The exchange of the Work for other copyrighted works by means of digital file-sharing or otherwise shall not be considered to be intended for or directed toward commercial advantage or private monetary compensation, provided there is no payment of any monetary compensation in connection with the exchange of copyrighted works." that is really vague, and open to interpretation, and unless you can be more specific about the ways in which you think your music could be used by the forces of evil, then i think your concerns will have to go unanswered ... but the fact that the Beastie Boys have released music under a CC license should relieve you somewhat (cos i'm sure that out of any world-renowned band, they'd be so unlikely to expose any of their music to use by the forces of social/environmental/political evil) ;)
