Discussion Questions

  • What advantages and disadvantages are there for adopting Creative Commons licenses? What obstacles exist towards the adoption of Creative Commons licenses within the business community?


  • Copyright law differs between countries. Creative Commons has licenses that can be adapted to be compatible with the laws of many nations.
