What would the logical mechanism be for having the license travel with  
the data? For example, OCLC proposed a MARC field for license  
information, but such a field is easily removed, on the one hand, and  
is also necessarily lost when one transfers data to any format that  
does not have an analogous license field. And that only works for  
records... if you begin to develop a linked data model, you would need  
a license on each statement.
