yes, "CC is important for culture as free software is important for software" but it is not the only one. and it has been critisized so much... you can read some here 
http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/articles/commons_without_commonality
there are alternatives like libre commons and free art license etc... but cc is so populer that what people understand form free culture is just what cc says. i think the foundations of a free culture is in what stallman says. share alike approach of copyleft is curical. otherwise someone can create a new work based on my cc license work and prevent others to work on it... 

if you are interested, i have written a paper on the issue at artciencia online journal called "POLITICS OF COPYLEFT: HOW DO RECENT MOVEMENTS ALTERING COPYRIGHT IN SOFTWARE AND IN ART DIFFER FROM EACH OTHER". http://www.artciencia.com/Admin/Ficheiros/ORTONAKI342.pdf
 
i even criticize OSI in the paper above for its popular approach like cc. if someone would be interested to read i would love to have feedback. i am more into contemporary art than coding and it was not criticized by any hacker yet.

but yes, i shouldn't shop at the supermarket if i can "see" a "bazaar" nearby.

Uh, CC has a Share-Alike license which, funny enough, is called
Share-Alike.  They also have a BSD-style one, and a non-commercial one
true, but if you're ignoring the whole movement because you don't like
people to have choice, then you are losing out.  Or do you not shop at
a supermarket because it sells some items you don't appreciate?

CC is important for culture as free software is important for software.
