Sounds like this is the real problem. When you say "enforces", what does
that mean exactly? Can you not override this with a statement of your
own? Does Revver get an exclusive right from you that prevents you from
also making your video available from another source?
I'm not sure if it is actually legally true, but from an ethical
perspective, it seems perfectly okay to me for you to:
1) Post a video on Revver, with "CC-NC-ND" license notice (and if
possible a notice saying that it is really CC-By-SA or whatever,
preferably with a link to a download site).
2) Make the video available for download from another site under the
"real" CC-By-SA license.
Assuming of course that you really are just trying to work around
Revver's limitations. In fact, I see that Revver has thought of this point:
"""
We're totally not going steady.
You may choose to allow people to interact with your video in other
ways. Maybe you want to allow people to use your video in a mash-up or
to add it to a compilation DVD. You can do that! The license outlined
above is non-exclusive and applies only to the Revverized version of
your video.
"""
Cheers,
Terry
