How I've always seen things:

1) If it helps advertise a company's product.
2) Helps their product be sold and used consumers.
3) Increases the companies profit.

Then it's legal unless the company complains.

A good example is when Gentoo packaged the cvs version of cedega making
it easy to build & install vs. buying the product.  Cedega complained,
Gentoo complied and yanked the cvs build, but keeping the binary package
was fine & dandy.

<shrugs>  Seems simple as pie for me (as long as the wife is making the
pie crust).
