Not really. I don't want my work used for commercial gain. Period. The
reasons why are immaterial as long as a "Non Commercial" license truly
means what it says it means.

MOST faculty I know express similar feelings. They don't mind their
material being shared, they just don't want it being sold.

For some, the non-commercial restriction might be about CONTROLLING
commercial use, but for others it just might be about NOT HAVING
commercial use. I created the material for other people to use freely,
not for someone to make money on by restricting it.
