Daniel Carrera asks a few questions about the scope of a cc-license. When a licensor licenses a work under a cc-license does that mean that he licenses the work as cast into a particular physical form or does he offer a license for all the possible physical forms the work that he has and/or will create?
This is an interesting question. IMO the license only applies to the particular physical form of a work that has a cc-license attached to it. My reason for this line of reasoning is that the license is non-exclusive, meaning that the copyright holder retains the full copyright of the work; he can create more copies of the work and create derivative works based on the work.
While I seems to think slightly differently regarding the WAV/mp3 issue, I tend to agree that CC licensing mp3 and selling WAV would be okay. Licensing mp3 format of a recording on one website and selling it without CC license on another site, I tend to think, is okay, too.
But I realized that I am not sure if the author retains full copyright. What do you think about this part (from CC-BY-SA 2.5)?
