The CC-BY license is essentially a BSD-style license for non-code uses, and 
CC-BY-SA is meant as a copyleft like the GPL, though it's fundamentally 
less stringent because it doesn't require source materials to be provided 
(I've been looking for that kind of license for my music for years and no 
one has come up with one, probably because of the difficulty in 
establishing what constitutes source materials for artistic works).  

As far as BY goes, there are no CC licenses without attribution anymore, 
see here:
