Pyramid $cheme is a CDr label created by Nuuj to explore
alternate ways of distributing audio recordings.
To break free from the constraints of traditional copyright law, Nuuj
created a
license that gives anyone who owns
a copy of a Pyramid $cheme CDr
the right to manufacture and sell any number of additional copies for
their own profit, yet the artist retains all other rights to their work.
Pyramid $cheme CDrs are in CD Extra format and original artwork for
various packaging solutions are included on the CDr in Adobe® Acrobat™
format.
These CDrs should only be reproduced via means that will preserve the
mixed mode format.
Sale price of Pyramid $cheme CDrs should be determined by local market
conditions.
Unlike actual Pyramid Schemes, any profits derived from the sale of
copies of Pyramid Scheme CDrs shall become the sole property of the seller.
The distribution of promotional copies of Pyramid Scheme CDrs to media
sources is highly encouraged.
Promotional copies should be registered with Pyramid $cheme
()
to
help prevent duplication of promotional servicing.
The manufacturer of each CDr shall be responsible for quality issues
relating to CDr manufacture.
Please note that Nuuj is not a lawyer and he does not know if this new
license will hold up in any court in the unlikely event of an actual legal
action.
While anyone is free to copy the Pyramid Scheme license concept for
their own releases, only Nuuj can create official Pyramid $cheme releases.
