That's one of the reasons to avoid licences that explicitly specify non- commercial in their objective. They make it next to impossible to distribute the work in any form except its original (web site, mailing list archive, etc.) Non-commercial licences are also incompatible with both the Free Software and the Open Source definitions -- though we're talking about artistic vs software works, the same principles apply. So for instance you cannot create a Linux distribution that includes photos or music under a NC licence and sell CDs if you make even a paisa of profit from those CDs. Sure, there are ways out (like the one you specified), but they're ugly, unethical and basically twist meanings to comply with the letter but not the spirit of the licence. Just Say No to NC licences.
