What does a Creative Commons license replace in the traditional copyright management?

  • The need for individual negotiations for specific rights between copyright owner and licensee

  • The need for a copyright lawyer

  • The need for a copyright certificate

  • The need for a copyright registration fee

Answer

Traditional copyright management often involves individual negotiations for specific rights between the copyright owner (licensor) and the licensee. A Creative Commons license replaces this by providing standard releases that specify which rights the creator reserves and which they waive.
