Do portfolio projects count as &#39;commercial use&#39;
<p>I may be overthinking this bit but... I want to use a certain audio file with creative commons license, which <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">states</a> that I may not use it for commercial purposes.</p>

<p>Hence the question: do portfolio projects (which may indirectly give me income if I get a project/job because of it) considered commercial use?</p>

<p>Yes, if you're using something to advertise your business, that is a commercial use, as compared to a "private use" such as your own amusement or education.</p>
