You should be very careful giving advice on a tricky subject like this,
Greg. I think the distinction you make is very wrong.
The licenses say,
You may not exercise any of the rights granted to You in Section
3 above in any manner that is primarily intended for or directed
toward commercial advantage or private monetary compensation.
The draft NC guidelines say:
Is there any money changing hands [...] ? [...] license
violation – this is not a noncommercial use.
As far as I can tell, the statement you make above is false.
