What is Commercial Video?
master.com

 I've been trying to work out just what I can do with Creative Commons music. I thought it would be a good idea to ask some "borderline" questions to see where the consensus lies.

1)  If I use the revenue from selling monthly subscriptions to videos to fund the project (e.g., to pay for hosting or batteries), is that "commercial"?
 
Strongly Agree  Agree  Neutral  Disagree 
Strongly Disagree 
 
2)  If I use the revenue from charging per download for my videos to fund a project (e.g., to pay for hosting or batteries), is that "commercial"?
 
Strongly Agree  Agree  Neutral  Disagree 
Strongly Disagree 
 
3)  Does it stop being commercial if the charges are called a "donation" with the option to not make one?
 
Strongly Agree  Agree  Neutral  Disagree 
Strongly Disagree 
 
4)  If I call my vids "digital art" does that make it non-commercial?
 
Strongly Agree  Agree  Neutral  Disagree 
Strongly Disagree 
 
5)  If I am grant funded for a video project, are my videos commercial?
 
Strongly Agree  Agree  Neutral  Disagree 
Strongly Disagree 
 
6)  If I am soliciting donations to pay for my living expenses, does that make it commercial?
 
Strongly Agree  Agree  Neutral  Disagree 
Strongly Disagree 
 
7)  Do paid ads in a videoblog make it commercial?
 
Strongly Agree  Agree  Neutral  Disagree 
Strongly Disagree 
 
8)  Do "sponsored by" ads in a videoblog (e.g., hosting provided by acme.com) make it commercial?
 
Strongly Agree  Agree  Neutral  Disagree 
Strongly Disagree 
 
9)  What single question would you ask to find out if a video project is commercial or not?
 
 
10)  Do you have any other comments?
