CC Myths
CC is not:
• Anti-copyright – just another rights management tool for creators
• Anti-commercial – can charge for first use, commercial uses, “premium” service, or embed advertising
• Right for every situation – entirely voluntary, and won’t be best solution for all creators

Why share?
• Facilitates collaboration
• Increases reach and reputation
• Access new business models
• Gives new value to ‘back catalogue’
• Community engagement
• Reduces costs for users
• Legal clarity and reduced admin
• Increases sum of human knowledge, encourages innovation
