I agree with the id3v2 tag idea, though they're rarely used at present. I seldom see them on tracks I download, and have only ever used id3v1 tags on my own original music and ripped tracks due to most of my hardware players not supporting v2. (Obviously this is changing, though the majority of mp3 players (i.e. iPods) still don't support them.) But unless you're distributing an entire album in one archive, I think putting the songs into archives with license files is too awkward. Either way will prevent music spiders from serving up your music without licensing information, though.
