It depends on the license. The GPL, for example, is written to be 
applicable to all sorts of creative work - although there are some it is 
better suited to than others.

There is no legal reason why you can't apply any sort of copyright 
license to any creative work - it's just a question of how much legal 
confusion it causes.

I can't remember. You would need to remind us all of the relevant facts 
of the situation.
