I wanted to keep this conversation going - been thinking about it for a while now.

Looking for help thinking through this...

So if I release work under creative commons share alike - people are free to use my work commercially only when they use the work in it's unaltered entirety, for example, a compilation DVD or revlog on a site with advertising. Also they have to give attribution and make clear the terms of this license. So if you bought a DVD with some of my videoblogs included on it you would know that they were available for free on my site. It would be up to the consumer to decide if the extra value of the compilation DVD was worth the cost.

The benefits to me are wider distribution (possibly).

Nobody is going to get rich off of my content, especially if they have to make clear the license terms (not withstanding the fact that nobody is going to get rich off of it period).

Am I missing anything? What other implications are there?

Thanks,
Verdi
