Maybe it will deter some people Nadia. It doesn't deter me. I like the idea of a small start up business discovering a way to make money from my work. If a big business does it, that is fine by me too.. maybe they'll come to like my work so much they'll offer me a job.
And then there's me. I work for an organisation that could be seen as commercial. We are a public education institution, but we do have to make our money too. For this reason, we don't use anything with a NC restriction. Also, there may come a time where one day I decide to operate as a small business. I wouldn't want to face that step with a bunch of content I had collected and reauthored with NC restrictions.. The list goes on. To me (and many others), a NC restriction means - do not use.
