Who know "Against DRM 1.0"? It's a free copyleft license for artworks.
http://www.freecreations.org/Against_DRM.html

It contains two important clauses that CCPL don't include: a clause about related rights and a clause against DRM.
The first clause authorizes licensee to exercise related rights: on the basis of the copyleft clause, performers cannot exercise reserved rights concerning their performances of the work; producers of phonograms cannot exercise reserved rights concerning the phonograms in which they fix the work; broadcasting organizations cannot exercise reserved rights concerning broadcastings of the work.
The second clause prevents the use of DRM to protect the work: if licensor uses DRM, the license is not applicable to the work (on the contrary, CCPL licensor can use DRM); if licensee uses DRM, license is automatically void (on the contrary, CCPL licensee can use DRM in a manner not inconsistent with the terms of the license).
