This vendor requires bank routing information and tax information, as it is for
profit.
As such, this is counter to Frozen Bubble being free as in price and freedom,
and in addition, it would blatantly violate the terms of the music license, as
the music cannot be distributed commercially without permission or license from
the original artists - which it does not have.
Thus, this game can not be featured on the OUYA unless the music is removed and
Pawel and I wanted to set a price for the game, which I am not going to do.

But Frozen Bubble is GNU GPLv2, right?
https://code.google.com/p/frozenbubbleandroid/source/browse/COPYING
Assuming the music is licensed in Creative Commons NC licence (or similar),
this is incompatible. It should be stated somewhere that this is not pure GNU
GPL v2+ package.
Anyway, there is possibility to remove the music. You did great job of porting
the stuff and OUYA is a great platform. It would be awesome to have it there.
Some games are completely free on OUYA platform and only supports donations via
OUYA payments which could work for this case. #justsaying
Anyway thanks for explanation and good luck!

Frozen Bubble for Android is GPL v2 and v3. Guillaume Cottenceau was
particularly vehement about being against the "or later version" clause, but
being v2 and v3 permits a wider degree of compatibility, such as with GPL v3
and Apache 2.0. Assets are not covered by the GPL.
The music is licensed under the Mod Archive distribution license.

You can try contacting HYND, Michel Racic, or Aleksander Fedorynski, but unless
there is a way to submit a game without giving out banking information, I'm not
going to touch it.

By the way, the README file and the comment at the top of every source file
state this is work is licensed under "GPL version 2 or 3".
