Just for the record, Gnucleus is derived from GNU and nucleus. GNU is an open source software umbrella organization, and covers hundreds of projects. It's known as the originator of the GPL, or General Public License, which is a sort of a EULA for GNU software.
Many GNU projects follow the G* naming convention and are sometimes recursive/self-referential acronyms; GNU itself stands for GNU's Not Unix.
One of the advantages of GPL licensed software is that the source code must be available to any person who obtains the executable binary; a very attractive proposition to MusicCity as you can see. The trade-off is that anyone distributing modified versions of such software (like Morpheus PE) must also make the changes publicly available.
