[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.

[edit] Fair use rationale

Non-free / fair use media rationale for Something About Airplanes
Description	Image of the cover/booklet of Death Cab for Cutie's album Something About Airplanes
Source	Clearly a scan or photograph that faithfully portrays the album artwork. Such an image cannot carry its own copyright and so falls under the copyright of the album artwork, which we are claiming fair use of for identification and critical commentary.
Article	Something About Airplanes
Portion used	The front cover is visible as is the rowboat picture on the first page (through a hole designed into the cover). The interior design and text as well as the back cover are not used.
Low resolution?	The image is of low resolution and compressed. Copies made from this image would be greatly inferior to and easily distinguishable from the original artwork, in particular because the original is printed with at least three different materials, one textured and another transparent, the outer with hole punched in it.
Purpose of use	Illustrates the appearance (and construction) of the artwork, which is important to the article and specifically discussed in the article.
Replaceable?	Any other image produced for this purpose would be copyright the copyright holder as this one is.
