It is an aside. I find it hard to reconcile NC-SA without specifying media, 
so I am not surprised that flickr is going to a third version of their 
license. The rest of my message qualifies or specifies ND. flickr is in the 
thread's root. I forgot that there are e-mail subscribers to this list.

Project Gutenberg has variance in their license. Some of them specify "at 
cost". Some of them say "freely". Some of them are long. Some licenses are 
terse in the project. "Copies on optical disk or VHS must be gifts." is my 
turn of phrase, AFAIK.

I was really hoping for someone to chime in on the question of whether I 
should specify any restrictions on commerce, like "Copies on optical disk or 
VHS must be gifts". I think I will strike that for the karaoke version, 
since I hav a right to vocals in a recording.
