There is, indeed, a huge number of works under licenses that don't include 
the NC clause. I'm just about finished compiling a book of the best CC 
photos from 2006. There were 18 million photos put under CC licenses on 
Flickr in 2006 and *3 million* of those were under CC-BY, which is where 
I'm pulling photos from for the book.

All of the proceeds from the book will be donated to CC as an 
organization.
