I figure at least a handful of y'all know a little something about the Creative Commons...

If a work is under the CC "no derivatives" clause, does that mean I can't use it as a TV show soundtrack? It's not clear to me whether the admonition means that I can't make a new piece of the same kind of media out of it - use it as a sample in my own composition, that is - or whether I can't redistribute it in any form at all other than the pure-audio shape I found it in.

Edit Aw nuts, The CC FAQ sez yes it is derivative.

Sure. I'm just impatient and want to finish this without waiting for people to get back to me about permission. I tend to assume that everyone I know is as bad as I am about writing back about stuff like this, and I find up-front CC licenses to be an excellent substitute for personal negotiation. (Which I am; I found some agreeably licensed stuff and am rendering everything now.)

Tangentially, I really ought to contact the various artists whose work I've been using in Jmac's Arcade and The Gameshelf anyway...
