Could you add a license file to the project? Just to be able to refer to something in case sombody nit-picks.

I'd say this is probably public domain, if anything. If 4 minutes and 33 seconds of silence was used, then John Cage may not like it, though. https://github.com/lucperkins/licenses/blob/master/public-domain-unilicense.txt is a candidate as silence is mainly public domain in essence and cannot be copyrighted.

I just want to point out that "license" is an anagram of "silence", which is cool.

> The WTFPL intends to be a permissive, public-domain-like license. The license is not a copyleft license. The license differs from public domain in that an author can use it even if they do not necessarily have the ability to place their work in the public domain according to their local laws.

Not illegal to license the file containers you've created though.
