The GEMA Presumption as an Entry Barrier (Pt. 2/3)

The licence market is protected by the GEMA presumption. The income of composers, authors and providers (labels) of GEMA licences is protected. Where's the threat?

Free licensed songs would represent a product substantially expanded by valuable properties. It is no substitute product but nevertheless a competitive one.

The GEMA Presumption as an Entry Barrier (Pt. 1/3)

The line between private use and commercial use is not that clear, and it is not explicitly defined by Creative Commons. The definition rather relies on the author being the licenser.

The metadata of any work licensed under Creative Commons should allow for a contact option.
