In case there is doubt, this was intended as constructive "advice" not
an actual command. :-)

I do genuinely find the use of the word "free" in such contexts to be
confusing and somewhat irritating, though. It clutters up searches when
I'm looking for the small amount of truly "free" content amidst a sea of
restricted content.

Of course, I do realize the business case for using NC, and that is not
what my comment is about. I do _listen_ to NC and ARR music. But when
I'm looking for "free" music, it usually means I'm looking for something
I can include with my own free-licensed published media.

Cheers,
Terry
