The most ambiguous example I can think of is a non-profit
organization's website running a video with ads on the side. The
organization itself is non-commercial in the sense that it is non-
profit. But of course non-profit organization make money, and they
could certainly do so by running ads. In this case, the organization
is not selling the vide inasmuch as it is using the video to drive
traffic toward the its site (and, hopefully, toward the ads).
However, this is a special case. I think the majority of commercial vs
non-commercial situations are pretty easy to spot.
