I think creating free content is much more subversive.
Does the one preclude the other?
Yes to a large extent. eg see Jimbo's comments on his talk page about his friend who is taking free pictures of baseball players:
"But my very good friend Terry spends a lot of his spare time going to baseball games to take photos of baseball players for us, and he finds it disheartening that many of the photos he is taking aren't adding to wikipedia except in the narrow sense of improving things from a "fair use" to "GFDL" standpoint. He's prefer to be known as the hero who went to baseball games year in and year out to get hundreds of photos for Wikipedia for article which would have otherwise been bare."
