BSD CreativeCommons GPL MIT PublicDomain licensing video

Content

This was a spontaneous answer to a question I've received.I thought it's good time to talk about licensing of software and creative works.I talk about free and open source software, and free culture and what do you need to know about licenses if you want to sell your music.I forgot to mention the BSD license as one of the more liberal ones (probably a bit similar to MIT). GPL being a bit limiting in the regard you can't appropriate any software that it touches, unlike with the other two licenses.Enjoy!
