I think it's important for anybody that considers himself an "artist" to somewhat control what others make to their "art". I use to share my photos as Attribution but if I consider any of them perfect enough I will for sure share it as also NoDerivs or Sampling. I think this is what makes CC great, such freedom. We shall not forget that anything not explicitly copylefted is copyrighted. In Spain, if I make music not under CC, SGAE will try to make money from every time it sounds and sure I won't see an euro as I am not affiliated. > > Truly free music lets me play with music not possible in any other > way. > Of course even given I'm a CC advocate I would never try stopping you from sharing your contents as GPL!
