Abstract
This article first examines the many factors that the licensor takes into account when deciding how stringent of a licence to issue. It draws attention to the wide range of motives that could influence licence decision-making. The article goes on to say that when works have a strong appeal to the community of opensource contributors. For instance, when contributors stand to significantly benefit from signalling incentives or when the licences are well-trusted, permissive licences will be more common. The restrictive ones will be shared when the demand is more brittle. It should be noted that these licences are intricate legal contracts that haven't been put to the test in court. There are still many questions concerning how to interpret them. Whether the licence stipulates that the source code must be made publicly available when changed versions of the software are distributed, such a clause is occasionally referred to as a "copyleft" clause. Whether the licence prohibits the infringement of music. In this article, the study highlights the dichotomy of copyright and copywrong with music infringement and copyleft and copyright in the digital system and open and free software.
