when you upload a file, can you choose the license that is applied to it?? for instance, whether or not someone could use it commercially?

only on samples and originals.

when you upload a remix, you ‘inherit’ the strictest license of all the samples you used.

this is not really a question of legality, more like the safest site policy we could think of to avoid legal issues.

hope that makes sense,

This principle would also apply if the “samples” were whole CC-licensed songs and your finished product was a whole mixtape, no? That seems logical…
