Presumably they have the rights to do so. There MAY be different interplay between CC NC and CC non-NC licenses and streaming royalties. I really don't understand these issues to be honest. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable will weigh in. </p> http://forum.creativecommons.org/topic/57#post-125 Sun, 24 Aug 2008 01:55:27 +0000 Jawmaster 125@http://forum.creativecommons.org/ <p>Due to heavy royalties imposed by SoundExchange, Pandora.com may be shutting down their streaming radio service soon. Are the streaming music services at CC sites like Magnatune threatened at all by these royalties? Is SoundExchange even allowed to collect royalties at all on CC content? </p> http://forum.creativecommons.org/topic/30#post-68 Fri, 13 Jun 2008 16:05:01 +0000 question 68@http://forum.creativecommons.org/ <p>got this info to me via mail.</p> <p>'medium' refers to the pysical way you're using the work (eg radio, website, CD etc), so the 'reasonable to the medium' provision is supposed to let you vary how you attribute for different distribution methods. So, for example, on net radio you might mention the artists name, and then have a list on a website. Or your example for the nightclub seems appropriate.</p> <p>But attribution in some form remains compulsory - if there is a service that says you can't attribute, then you can't use the work under the CC licence. You'll be in breach of the CC licence.</p> <p>As far as getting more detailed with the attribution requirements - it would be hard to deal with individual case examples like how you should do it in a film etc. It's just too much detail for a licence. But CC has a marking project that sets out best practice guidelines about how you should attribute in different mediums (<a href="http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Marking)" rel="nofollow">http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Marking)</a>. Does that help? </p> http://forum.creativecommons.org/topic/30#post-64 Thu, 12 Jun 2008 21:03:36 +0000 jam 64@http://forum.creativecommons.org/ <p>From CC.au license<br /> -attribute the original author in any work, derivative work or collection that you distribute. The attribution may be provided in any reasonable manner, but as far as is reasonable to the medium...</p> <p>thought:<br /> attribution in the credits of a film might have been created to make sure the artists could be compensated for their work through a guild, possibly? what percentage of an audience reads the credits of a film? What about the time and placement of the creativity within the film? Most films have a q-sheet (that is separate to the film) that lets the rights authority know what was played when and by who- so royalties can be distributed. Would this q-sheet need to be part of the attribution as the most minimum form of reasonable attribution?</p> <p>my point is that a lot of mediums have no form of reasonable attribution. Maybe a link from the license could list different ways to attribute, a set of standards for each medium to make sure creators are attributed fairly. </p>
