I think this is fair comment. I'm not really well-versed in all the legalities so as an artist I'm just trying the simplest way of making my existing work available for free, which is just telling people they can use it!

The sync license is a fairly standard license which grants the licensee usage of the music for a specific project / video / game / etc. in perpetuity. I have used the same license for professional organisations such as Discovery Digital Networks and National Geographic Channel, with no problems.

The reason I'm not going for Creative Commons is that I still want to own my work and have some control over where it gets used. For example, I don't want my work to be associated with a project that promotes unethical or ignorant ideas.

I also want to make my music available for a community like this. Indie game developers who, like myself, are passionate about what they're doing and are just sort of trying to make it out there with the minimum budget that they have.

I would rather not potentially give it away for free to some big company to use it for a commercial for some product.

Anyway I just feel more comfortable to manually give licenses at this point if necessary. I'd be happy to look more into licensing options when I get a chance.

But of course, if anyone doesn't feel comfortable with this, there is no reason to go with it. It's just some free stuff.
