By choosing to enable flexible use and reuse of their materials creators can take advantage of the many creative benefits digital technologies offer. It allows creators to connect to new audiences, get feedback more readily and from a diverse cross-section of communities, engage with their fans and enter into a creative dialogue with other creators.
