The Lobby / Using Music in Freeware Games
« on: October 11, 2009, 20:06:23 »
Just wanted to get people's collective opinions on using music in freeware games.
I've tried tracking down a few artists in the past, but usually the music files were created in the early 2000s (or late 90s) and the artist is no longer contactable.
So what does everyone think? Use the music and ensure the artists are credited, either by real name or composer handle?
Bjorn Lynne once told me that I was free to use his music, so long as I didn't sell the game and didn't claim that I had written it.
