 Once you've installed MozCC in Songbird, visit a page with music and metadata, like the [http://ccmixter.org/media/view/media/remix/latest Latest Remixes at ccMixter.org].  If you decide to copy a track to your library, that license information travels with it.

 As of version 2.4.2, [[MozCC]] provides some basic support for license detection in [http://songbirdnest.com Songbird].  Songbird is "a desktop Web player, a digital jukebox and Web browser mash-up."  In other words, a darn cool music player, built on Gecko.  When you install MozCC in Songbird, you get license icons right in the playlist view, for each track.

 == Limitations and Issues ==
 MozCC ''only'' looks at metadata in the web page, not embedded in the audio file itself.  So some tracks may indeed be licensed, but if the page doesn't include metadata about the track, that information won't show up.
