    There isn’t an inherent financial reason for contributing to Creative Commons work the way there is for Open Source.

    Major companies will contribute some development resources to Open Source software because they will get a concrete benefit and the overall effort will be cheaper than going with a closed source option. There really isn’t the equivalent for Creative Commons media.
