What does that mean?

The human-readable license from Creative Commons explains fairly well. You are allowed to copy any of the music on this web site, under just a couple of conditions:

• Attribution: You are required to credit me (Scott Rollins) as composer and include the proper copyright notice.
  I suggest a form similar to this example:

  Music: Scott Rollins.
  Copyright © 2008 Scott Rollins.
  CC BY-NC-ND 2.5 Canada License.

  Feel free to adapt the formatting as you like, as long as all the information in the example is included in the copyright notice.
• Noncommercial: You may not use the music for commercial purposes. (If you want to do this, please see below.)
• No Derivative Works: You may not alter or build upon the music to create something else. (If you want to do this, please see below.)

If you wish to adapt or alter any of my music, please contact me with your plans. For use in worship, I will readily approve, but please contact me beforehand.

Commercial use
