Speaking of which, is this the right RDFa+rel-license syntax for
saying that http://example.com/my.mp3 is under a by-sa license?

<div about="http://example.com/my.mp3">

<a rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/us/">
<img alt="Creative Commons License" style="border-width:0"
src="http://i.creativecommons.org/l/by-sa/3.0/us/88x31.png"/></a><br/>
<span xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"
href="http://purl.org/dc/dcmitype/Sound" property="dc:title"
rel="dc:type">My Work</span> by <a
xmlns:cc="http://creativecommons.org/ns#"
href="http://example.com/attribute" property="cc:attributionName"
rel="cc:attributionURL">Joe Attributed</a> is licensed under a <a
rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/us/">Creative
Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 United States License</a>.

</div>


What I'm thinking of is cheaping out on embedding license info into
media files and instead putting the license claims into a separate
HTML document.  That seems a lot easier to implement and to execute
than having a special format and program for every media type.
