Pro
-exposure for free
-links to your page
-SA stops them to use it where big money is involved. (They'd buy a
license from you instead of putting latest hollywood movies under sa)
-easier to manage for small broadcasters of all kinds.
Con
-Other people can distribute physical devices of your work and earn
money. You better offer these yourself, too. If you can't afford
pressing a cd, that would blockbust the music world... maybe someone
else is going to do it for you.
In theory the SA (share alike) should stop them, as if you've given it free,
they would have to do the same.
SA means derived works are given away under the
same license, not same
conditions. You may sell them.
How precise the wording is and strong the
protection is, I don't know.
