NonCommercial still has a lot of currency among artists, and we shouldn't be rushing to exclude this community, when a full groundwork hasn't yet been laid for the social normalization of SA in their industry. We might benefit, though, from a rebranding of NonCommercial, but probably not to something as bare and harsh as "CommercialMonopoly".
On the other hand, I think a much better case can be made for retiring the NoDerivaties license, which only partakes of the commons in the vaguest of senses. The primary 'legitimate' users of this license are archives and cultural institutions, who are concerned about issues like provenance and curatorial integrity, so if we do retire this license, we should accompany that retirement with some enhanced gadget-like attribution functionality designed to meet the needs of this community.
