Hey all, John from Megabeep here. If you've read my blog you might know that my goal is to eventually grow the blog into a net label. I'm gearing up for the first Megabeep Prog-Chip Compilation release, for which there will soon be an open call for material. It will ultimately be available for very cheap download at Bandcamp or an equivalent site, and the modest proceeds will be toward the further development of the Megabeep label.

SO, my question is-- how do you facilitate the licensing of such a compilation? I want the artists to retain all rights but allow me commercial use in order to retain whatever modest proceeds I collect. I've heard the creative common license is good format, but how does that work exactly? Do I have each artist fill out a lisence for each individual track, or is it enough that I register one license active for the entire compilation.

I'm not sure I'm even asking the right questions since I'm new to this. Anyone have experience with this? Any help you can offer would be VERY helpful!
