So you disagree with Terry Hancock's definition of
"derivative" and 
"collective" work...

No, but it has this really weird sub-note about advertising
which makes 
it NC-in-specific-cases. This totally confuses the
"general public".

I'm sure we need more than one license (my personal choice
is between 
using by/by-nc/pd and using by/by-nc).

Very burdensome... that's a side effect you can't get around
when using 
  anything made with a CC attribution-.... license. But it's
better than 
not being able to use the samples at all.
