The court ruled at the special case. The institution in question is paid 
by all germans due to a kind of fea imposed - "Rundfunkbeitrag". 
Everyone owning or renting an object in Germany has to pay to them - 
without regard if they uses that media or not. If you have to pay to 
someone, you would not consider that relation non-commercial.
