Creative Commons Liscence (CCL) is very versatile and can be used for many formats digital or otherwise. It allows a liscencee to redistribute/edit material around the world for non commercil use.
GNU Public Liscence (GPL) is mainly used for Software. Again it allows liscencees to copy, edit and redistribute code, however the liscensee is allowed to charge for this service. This is soley on the basis the work is not greater than the requirements started in the GPL. Another difference is there can be no hidden aspects to the copyrighted code. It must be supplied with written copies of the source code, whereas with CCL, information can be witheld.
