I do recall some people with this business model in mind.

Do check out Creative Commons (both the foundation and the mailing lists) - 
they are cooking up something called "CC+" ("Creative Commons Plus").

In short: you license something under a CC-nc license, then provide a way for 
people to acquire commercial licenses.

Getting paid for re-licensing everything under another license? Certainly can 
do.


Anyway, I strongly suggest you to drop by the CC mailing lists.

Cheers,
