Hi I was wondering if you could add say the GNU GPL to the list because I only know of a few that are licensed under the GPL or if you could update those already on the list.
Mainly the ones by Nightbeat aka Carl Larsson:

I don't think licenses intended for software like the GNU GPL are particularly useful for music; I see the fact that some people tried to license their music on that particular rather as an error and not as something that we should support.
Furthermore, I don't see any notice about the GNU GPL in the sample texts of those modules. Of course it's fully possible that GPL-licensed software used those songs with permission, but that doesn't mean that we at ModArchive can simply change the license to that.
