Well, that raises the legal question of whether a CC license
is a "license" or a "contract" -- again. ;-)

The distinction is a U.S. only problem. In the rest of the world courts will apply contract law when analyzing any open source/content license.


Personally, I think it's a bad idea to start thinking of any of
these licenses as "contracts".

Why?
