The license structure permits NBCUniversal to exploit user-submitted content across all media channels and derivative applications without additional compensation or time restrictions, and the sublicensable nature of the grant allows NBCUniversal to authorize third parties to exercise these same rights.
Users who submit content through the service authorize NBCUniversal to use that content broadly and indefinitely, including modification and creation of derivative works, and NBCUniversal may delegate these rights to other entities. The non-exclusive nature means users retain the ability to license or use their content elsewhere.
