Hi,

"The Arts Council England and OpenBusiness.cc announce the release of a
report, which represents the results of a six-month study into artists'
attitudes towards copyright, creativity and alternative licensing
practises, in particular Creative Commons (CC). Although the number of
UK artists using open licensing has been growing for the last decade
there had been no investigation into how or why such licences were
being used.

This is a timely report which tells us something about how artists are
increasingly using the law in innovative ways to distribute their work.
It flags up the need for further research into the increasing use of
open content licences not just by individuals but also by organisations
and agencies worldwide and we are delighted to have provided some funds
to allow Open Business to begin this analysis."
