That's a subset of commercial use.  Some people, e.g.
the kermit people, consider distribution for profit on
a CD to be commercial use.  They also consider any 
distribution were there is a commercial relationship
to be commercial, but both are allowed for "open source".

Some people consider internal use by for profit 
organisations to be commercial, but this sort of use
is definitely permitted for open source.

Some "open source" licences permit conversion to binary
only, non-redistributable, form, but others don't.
