JAMENDO


Another website giving away all the music for free! How's that possible? By using a Creative Commons license. It also generates revenue via ads on the website for the artists who set up a shop. Users can also donate money directly to the artists.

CREATIVE COMMONS


Creative Commons is a company that offers licensing for music and other creative works. But what is interesting about it is that it offers a good alternative to traditional copyright. Because you have different kind of licenses - the creator/author can choose the kind of license - it doesn't limit creativity of others who might want to use your work. Which is the opposite of an all rights reserved copyright. We can notice that more and more artists are joining Creative Commons and I believe that the company has a very prolific future. To find out more about the licenses and how it works, use the link below.
