   #CreativeCommons (CC) is a way to let people share your work without giving up all your rights.

   For example, many bands use it to let fans legally share their music non-commercially, while still being able to charge companies for commercial use.

   It's really easy to add a CC licence, just pick the one you want from the official site and add it to your work:

   https://creativecommons.org/

   You can add CC licences to almost anything, including text, music, video etc.

      I think #C3S wasn't mentioend yet, so I do:

      If you are a person creating music, wanting to use #CreativeCommons and also use it commercially, the #C3S (Cultural Commons Collecting Society) might be just the right thing for you!
      (I think this very topic is one of the core reasons C3S was created).

      (If you live in #Germany, the C3S might be your alternative for #GEMA)

         @el_joa do you think there's any chance the C3S might be able to offer bridging funding to the Free Music Archive, to help keep them alive while they look for other sources of funding?
