Almay licence

[PapaLazarou]

I have just had 100 photographs passed at Almany but I am unsure which licence option I should go for.
Can any of you out there help, here are the options.

Royalty-Free
Licenced
Rights Protected

You do realise that Alamy has a forums, and many topics on this topic there right? Cause not all images should be sold with the same license.

Nothing on the forums.

My thoughts are posted on my blog as a small guide http://www.drg-photography.com/stock-photography-guide
each person has their own view. I put easily reproduced images mainly as rf and others licenced and if there people in the distance but unidentifiable with no model release etc I use right managed and set it to editorial only. So far I've had more RF sales than licenced but not buy a huge margin. It really depends on your work. If am image is RF some people wouldn't use it for advertising etc because they wouldn't want a rival company to use the same image. Hope this is even a little bit of help, but unfortunately there is no hard as stone method.
