Ignoring the other points, do remember that you are free to give MySpace
or anyone else permission to host/upload/perform/whatever your music
even after you have licensed it under a cc non-commercial license. You
are free to sell it to someone as traditional music, give it away to
someone else with tighter or looser restrictions than the cc
non-commercial license, etc. 

In short, YOU are not bound by the CC non-commercial clause (or any
other) just because YOU released it previously that way. You are simply
bound by your end of the bargain, e.g. don't sue people if they follow
the license you released it under.

This of course gets complicated if other people contributed (need their
permission), or if it's a derivative work based on other cc-licensed
stuff, but you knew that.

There's nothing remarkable about it. All one has to do is hit the 
right keys at the right time and the instrument plays itself.
