I want to know the answer to the following question:
What works do Creative Commons licenses generally apply to?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Some copyright owners voluntarily reduce the scope of what is considered infringement by employing relatively permissive, "open" licensing strategies: rather than privately negotiating license terms with individual users who must first seek out the copyright owner and ask for permission, the copyright owner publishes and distributes the work with a prepared license that anyone can use, as long as they adhere to certain conditions.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: no
