I'd also be interested to know what the relevant differences are between 
the different versions of each given license.

I'm working on relicensing my music (it's harder than you would think) 
from Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5 to 3.0.  I'm doing this not so much 
because I believe 3.0 will be advantageous, but for license of the 
downloads on my website to be consistent with those on Jamendo, which 
only offers the 3.0 version.

I have a hard time following legalese, especially comparing two versions 
of it.

I'm not asking you to answer me on the list, but to put the answer in 
the wiki so that all my benefit.

(The reason it's hard to relicense my work is that all the license 
notice artwork has to change - on my website, on my CD label and jewel 
case insert and so on.  I have to update my BitTorrent downloads and 
regenerate my .torrent files and reseed them.  It's a lot of work, so 
I've put off the relicensing for a long time.)
