So what is the legality status of J-pop type songs that are used as opening themes (or whatever) for JRPG's, VN's, and the like which are not included on the game's soundtrack and exist separately as released singles? Or if some are allowed and some aren't then what is the metric used to determine that?

For the record I'm thinking of songs in the category of Tales of Vesperia - Ring a Bell. I'd always thought these weren't supposed to be allowed and am pretty sure I've been told as much with that specific song. But now I'm also seeing that Tales of the Abyss - Karma has been in the contest before, and thinking about it I believe Skyclad Observer might be in the same category also? I'm not sure how or if any of these songs differ from one another in terms of how they should be classified.
