Which means that anyone using an advertising-based revenue model would allow "others to profit from [tsahyt's] work", which is not what tsahyt wants.

For example, "without cost" would allow a radio station, or a streaming system like Spotify, to play it without monetary compensation.

Yes. I was assuming he would want his music played on the radio. Maybe that's a mistake.

I assume that the problem isn't so much being played on the radio but rather not wanting "my works to end up as cash in someone elses pocket". For example, being broadcast by the not-for-profit and no-paid-advertising college radio station sounds like it will be okay.
