This is a great list and exactly the sort of thing CC should have as 
part of their FAQ.

Howabout:

    * An individual downloads a by-nc 2.0 book on their computer and
      pays their local copy shop to print and bind them a copy.

      pays their local copy shop to print and bind them a copy.
      They then give this to a friend, who sells this on eBay.
