For it to work, it has to be done in a BSD or preferably BSD like manner or if you are a Creative Commons fan in a BY or BY-SA like manner. (To bad CC or other interested parties can't come up with a simple "source code" like clause for non-code as that would also help.) "The Creative Commons “Open Video” contest is a great way to get artists and amateurs thinking about and producing open media." I agree with you completely on this one and you will notice it is calling for a BY-SA license. I was/am trying to do something similar here: http://www.ourmedia.org/node/145261 and I think it has possibilities if I can ever get myself organized enough to pull it off. I also think someone with grant getting abilities could find some funding for the production of BY-SA shows for PBS and NPR. This seems a natural fit to me. Copyleft shows on networks with a stated goal of benefitting the public. (If indeed they have the stated goal of benefitting the public and the Public in their names is more than just marketing.) all the best, drew (da idea man) http://www.ourmedia.org/user/17145 “This has to be done in a manner that respects the creators’ intent, but we also recognize the creative potential and cultural benefit that can come with open media.”

These pieces demonstrate the creative potential yet to be fully discovered in open media. We need to find ways to protect our fair-use rights from the encroching restrictions of many large groups like the MPAA and RIAA, who have proven themselves techno-phobic and increasingly lawsuit-happy. We also need to start building up a commons of media that can be shared, re-mixed, and enjoyed by all. It’s starting to become clear that attempts to make ours a closed society stifle innovation in software, so why not extend this philosophy of opening to music, to politics, to writing, to DNA, to images, to video? This has to be done in a manner that respects the creators’ intent, but we also recognize the creative potential and cultural benefit that can come with open media.
