What do the open-weight licences of LTX-2.x, MiniMax H3, Apple SHARP, Meta SAM and Fish Audio S2 actually allow for commercial use and where?
Licence texts read 2026-10-23 (not legal advice): LTX-2.x Community License (2026-08-11) grants broad rights subject to use restrictions (Attachment A), but entities with annual revenues of at least $10,000,000 must obtain a paid commercial licence for any non-non-commercial use; unlicensed commercial use by such entities is prohibited and fees may be charged retroactively. MiniMax H3 Community License (2026-08-02) is territorially limited: the "Applicable Territory" is worldwide EXCLUDING the European Union, the United Kingdom, the Republic of Korea and the United States, so the open-weights grant does not cover users there (MiniMax invites licence requests); also prior written authorization if commercial products/services exceed US$20M yearly revenue, and "MiniMax H3" must be displayed in commercial UIs. Apple SHARP model licence: Research Purposes only (non-commercial scientific research), derivatives likewise; excludes product development or commercial services. Meta SAM License...

- [sourced_fact] Licence texts read 2026-10-23 (not legal advice): LTX-2.x Community License (2026-08-11) grants broad rights subject to use restrictions (Attachment A), but entities with annual revenues of at least $10,000,000 must obtain a paid commercial licence for any non-non-commercial use; unlicensed commercial use by such entities is prohibited and fees may be charged retroactively. MiniMax H3 Community License (2026-08-02) is territorially limited: the "Applicable Territory" is worldwide EXCLUDING the European Union, the United Kingdom, the Republic of Korea and the United States, so the open-weights grant does not cover users there (MiniMax invites licence requests); also prior written authorization if commercial products/services exceed US$20M yearly revenue, and "MiniMax H3" must be displayed in commercial UIs. Apple SHARP model licence: Research Purposes only (non-commercial scientific research), derivatives likewise; excludes product development or commercial services. Meta SAM License (2025-11-19): worldwide royalty-free licence to use/modify/distribute with trade-control and ITAR restrictions and a patent-retaliation clause (no blanket non-commercial bar seen in lines read). Fish Audio Research License (2026-03-07): free for research and non-commercial use; any commercial use needs a separate written licence. Consequences: creator statements such as "free open-source" H3 (C3-B338-02) or "open-source" Fish S2 (C3-B351-01) are misleading for US/EU/UK users and commercial users respectively; Mickmumpitz's choice to replace a non-commercial skeleton component with SAM 3D Body (C3-B338-02) is consistent with SAM's licence; Matrix-3D (MIT) and the VACE-SkyReels merge (Apache-2.0 card) are more permissive. Hosted API use (e.g. MiniMax via fal) is governed by the host/vendor API terms, not these weight licences. · locator: lines ~95-103; line 10; line 36; lines 22-28; line 23; line 23 source
