Yet they still don't have the kind of license that I'm looking for: one directly analogous to the GPL, but for music; one where, while anyone can use your work for any purpose, derivative works must not only be licensed under the same license, but have their source materials (unmixed master recordings, sequencer files, video files, whatever it takes to "build" the final derivative work) available under that license as well. I don't think I'll ever see one like that in mainstream use the way the CC licenses are now, but it sure would go a long way toward creating the same kind of spirit in the music community that the GPL did (over the course of about 20 years) in the software community. At least nowadays most people have, or should soon have, the bandwidth necessary to make something like that practical.
