You can use OSM data both for commercial and non-commercial enterprise. Provided you adopt the same license when distributing your "product". The commercial clause is important for wider adoption of the data for businesses. http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/ Which brings me to one question, anybody here using OSM Philippine data for commercial purpose?
