Hi there
Sorry if I ask, but I read some posts back in 2013 about this particular topic and was wondering if something changed or, if not, if some admin could answer my questions.
I'm a musician, and would like to create music mods (i.e. for Stellaris). I would want to feel free to bundle in the mod music I'm currently selling, or distribute the very same music I bundle in the mod (for free) on my Bandcamp page, or stream it on Spotify for instance. Also, if people liked my music and wanted to hear more of it, I would want to link my pages in the mod description. Lastly, I would be concerned if, given a lack of copyright notice over my original work, some music-skilled user would then feel empowered to plagiarise my work, or redistribute the music as theirs in other music stores. This concern is not primarily directed towards Paradox or the modding community, but towards the final users of the mods.
How does the "infamous" Rule 4 apply to this case? Are there ways to protect my IP without breaking it?
