that is *always* assumed, whether a piece has been licensed or not.
copyright isn't really the issue here, is it? isn't it licensing ... ie
- how we are allowed to *use* the music, not who is creator or
intellectual "property" owner?
i don't think by posting music to this list that anyone is giving up
their copyright, but they *are* sort of saying "here is a public link to
some music i made, anyone can download it and distribute it". we are
basically, through a sort of informal contract, issuing stuff under a
Creative Commons license every time we post our music here - if we
*weren't*, then we'd potentially be exposing everyone on the list to
breaking the law.
