Not to detract from your point, but I want to correct this as its a common misunderstanding. CC is not a specific license. It does not allow or disallow particular things. CC is a structured way of reserving some rights, rather then reserving all of them. The NIN license could be expressed as a CC license. So could more liberal licenses.

The CC people need to be more careful as many people think CC is the same thing as public domain. I constantly run into folks who are convinced enough about this to argue about it. (Of course, I also run into people who think they can put all rights reserved AND a gnu license on the same file, but thats another story entirely.)
