Who is your research for?? How will it be used?


As a musician, publisher, and small label owner, I'd be happy to talk you on the phone at some point, but answering all your many questions via e-mail would take more time than I have to type! Sorry!

And I am not really sure how the CC license we worked on relates to publishing. Good question!! Maybe someone else will have agood answer for you.

Hello,

My name is Jonee and I am a newcomer to this list. Over the last week or so,
I've read through the discussion archive to get an understanding of what kind
of issues you people dealt with.

So congratulations on developments so far!

I am a researcher looking at licensing practices in music. My current research
aims to answer the question:

Is there a future for copyleft style licensing (e.g. CC sampling licenses) in
music?

I intend on answering these questions by analyzing the discussion forums and
then carrying out interviews with musicians & publishers.

To bring you up to date, I'm done with analyzing the dicussion forum, but I want
to air a few questions with yous - the developers - to make sure I am not
completely ignoring important perspectives or opinions:

1. Who are CC licenses (Sampling, Sampling plus, Non-commercial Sampling plus &
Music sharing license) aimed at:

(a) Musicians: Amateur or professional, composer or performer?
(b) Publishers: dedicated publishers, small or major record labels?

2. What was wrong about music publishing before copyleft style & CC licenses?

3. How do CC licenses offer a solution to publishing?

4. How will people know about alternative licenses such as CC?

5. What about the transition from copyright to copyleft licensing:

(a) At what rate is this happening; estimated timeline?
(b) How is (can) this transition influenced? (licenses themselves &
license
developers, musicians & consumers)

They may appear to be obvious or pointless questions, and discussion did at
times touch on these topics, but I think its worthwhile to put the simplified
questions to you all anyways!

Hopefully this can be of benefit to CC and the wider creative community, so any
opinion - critical or otherwise - is welcomed.

Regards,
Jonee

The truly creative people I know all live lousy lives, never have time to see you, don't take care of themselves properly, have weird tastes in men/women and behave badly. They don't wash and they eat disgusting stuff, they are mentally unstable and are absolutely brilliant.

A young girl aged six asked her mom to tell her what she did at the university where she went every day. "I am in the art department. I teach people to draw and paint," replied her mother. Astonished, the girl asked, "You mean they forget?"
