[edit] Licensing
 |
This image is of a cover of an audio recording, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher of the album or the artist(s) which produced the recording or cover artwork in question. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of such covers
qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information. |
| Non-free / fair use media rationale – non-free album cover –for Brainfreeze (album) | |
|---|---|
| Description |
This is the front cover for Brainfreeze (album) by the artist DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist. The cover art copyright is believed to belong to the label, Sixty 7, or the graphic artist. |
| Source |
The cover art can or could be obtained from Sixty 7 |
| Article | |
| Portion used |
The entire cover: because the image is cover art, a form of product packaging, the entire image is needed to identify the product, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image. |
| Low resolution? |
The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork. |
| Purpose of use |
Main infobox. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as cover art. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone.The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for.Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original artwork, namely the artist's providing graphic design services to music concerns and in turn marketing music to the public. |
| Replaceable? |
As musical cover art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the music would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. |
| Other information | Use of the cover art in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. |
[edit] Fair use in Brainfreeze (album)
Although the picture is subject to copyright I (MementoVivere) feel and assert that it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:
- it is a low resolution copy of an LP cover;
- it does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the LP in any way;
- no free alternative is available;
- it is being used to illustrate an article on the recording in question;
- it's low resolution means copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the album artwork on a CD or LP.
