One thing with BY-SAas opposed to a bare BY, you could also turn around and
freely resell their adaptation or your adaptation of their adaptation or your
remix of their remix or adaptation without so much as a $1 tip for them.
I can see the big guys taking advantage of BY-SA and reselling your original
work. I would be very interested and surprised to see the big players taking
advantage of BY-SA to make and sell covers.
I would think they would use the compulsary/statutory? license instead and pay
you your money.
Does anyone see them going the other way?
