Got ya, thanks for clarifying.

Just for the record, most of my works are actually released under CC0. Not all websites allow that (and not all jurisdictions). So on many websites I release in some form of CC.

While I do really want for people to release more works that are shareable, I can also recognize that problematics of proprietary software are pretty different as opposed to problematics of free cultural works. I apologize for hinting at a future article, but I do explain my views on it there. I do plan to complete the article this year.

No, it's not! The page of my website in which I talk about the
philosophy of my musical project is called "Free as in freedom".
I do care about freedom.

Forcing you to share your product as well is what I want to do!

I feel that if I use free software, free music, free culture etc... I
should give back something.

I agree.
