I don't agree with the argument, but this statement of it i well-formulated and interesting. And it reflects a sentiment on the part of a certain community to eliminate the 'NC' and 'ND' variations from Creative Commons altogether. But I don't think it addresses my own concern, that licenses that allow commercial use allow for the enclosure of content, resulting in people being force to pay money before they can access it. Related: open course on open licensing (I wonder whether they will present the pro-NC argument at all).
