A place to share and enjoy music licensed as Creative Commons BY-NC-SA! This community was made out of struggles in finding music under this license, and aims to both promote works licensed as BY-NC-SA, as well as serve as a hub with resources to find music licensed as such.
Please read the rules before posting. While discussion of topics regarding BY-NC-SA music is allowed, this community's main purpose is to post and promote BY-NC-SA songs and/or albums.
The Creative Commons BY-NC-SA license allows for sharing and modification of content so long as the original work and work creator are given proper credit attribution, the work is used purely in a non-commercial sense, and that any derivatives works utilize the same license.
The BY-NC-SA license is great, as it allows for creative freedom, restricts monetary usage rights, and ensures creators of works receive proper credit for their effort.
Barring commercial use of music, as BY-NC-SA does, may add a sense of genuineness to a work by assuring listeners that a work was made for passion rather than profit, and helps to prevent the works of artists from being financially exploited, especially by those they don't condone or agree with.
This hits a sweet spot for me since it reminds me of the days I'd play games on the Sega Master System.
Not old enough for when the console was released, but Boys & Girls Club I went to had a console donated to them and it was great. Thanks for sharing!
