Look at the attached pdf example :)

I think you should grant moral rights in each license, i.e.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Moral rights are granted to the authors of literary, dramatic, musical and
artistic works and to film directors:

* to be identified as the author of the work or director of the film in
certain circumstances, e.g. when copies are issued to the public

* to object to derogatory treatment of the work or film which amounts to a
distortion or mutilation or is otherwise prejudicial to the honour or
reputation of the author or director

In contrast to the economic rights under copyright, moral rights are
concerned with protecting the personality and reputation of authors. The
right to be identified cannot be exercised unless it has been asserted, i.e.
the author or director has indicated their wish to exercise the right by
giving notice to this effect (which generally has to be in writing and
signed) to those seeking to use or exploit the work or film. Moreover, both
the right to be identified and the right to object to derogatory treatment
can be waived by the author or director.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

and also grant Fair use principles in each license.
You should also allow to choose a proprietary license without the permission
to copy, distribute, etc.
a license that substitutes the default copyright notice,a nd grants Fair use
principles we are loosing with Dmca and Eucd...

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
1. The right to "time-shift" a work. For example, recording a television
show and watching it later.
2. The right to "space shift" a work. For example, copying a CD you have
legally acquired to an MP3 player for listening at the gym.
3. The right to make backup copies of the work. For example, backing up
your CD in the event the original is destroyed.
4. The right to use legally acquired work on the platform of your choice.
For example, watching TV on your iMac or listening to music on your RIO MP3
player.
5. The right to translate legally acquired work into comparable formats.
6. The right to use technology in order to achieve the aforementioned
rights.
