The Humble Indie Bundle is a commercial collection of games that was sold as "pay what you want". The games are available for puchase independently now.

Now, I'm assuming that by "commercial" you mean "for-pay" with no implications regarding Free/Non-Free.

The Canonical Store sells Parallels and PowerDVD. There are Linux versions of Quake and Doom as well.

If you do mean "For Purchase" software, there is a section for such applications in the Ubuntu Software Center.

'For Purchase' Section in Ubuntu Software Center

Currently, it only contains 'Fluendo DVD Player', which is being sold for US$ 24.95.

Fluendo DVD Player

Other applications will probably be added in the future. This is still a new feature.
