While the deeds and license chooser is a valuable tool it is integrated on few tools. Most CC license application occurs through external license chooser (youtube, flickr, etc.). For example flickr which suggests None as first choice, BY-NC-SA as second, two other NC follow, the free licenses BY and BY-SA are 5th and 6th in a list of 7. Many more license application on websites occur by imitating the license chosen by peers. Conclusion: changes to the deeds and license chooser (as well as other supporting communication on the CC web pages) will reach only a very limited audience. A large part of this audience are insiders involved in CC. Any action that desires to encourage free licenses over non-free ones should concentrate on how a larger proportion of the majority of licensors can be reached. --G.
