[edit] Summary

Cover of Boredoms album Vision Creation Newsun, taken from Amazon.com.

[edit] Fair use rationale

The cover of the album is not the "content" specifically being sold by the publisher of the media, and does not pose a significant risk of defrauding the publisher (and in fact may encourage the increased legitimate sales of said media).
Because the image is provided at a low resolution inappropriate for re-printing the media cover, itss usage on Wikipedia does not pose a problem of aiding media piracy, or make it so that the copyright holder could not in the future successfully re-sell the image as a print or a poster.
There are no "free" alternatives for the illustration of said copyrighted media which would not be themselves infringements on copyrights or trademarks. A low-resolution, correctly attributed image of the media itself, with its copyrighted status clearly indicated, is a better alternative than any other image, for Wikipedia's educational purpose.

[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

solely to illustrate the audio recording in question,
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

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.

To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information. For an example fair use rationale, see here.
