[edit] Rationale of fair use

The use of this image in the article, Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai (soundtrack), is fair use because:

  • It illustrates an educational article about the album from which the cover illustration was taken.
  • This image illustrates the text next to which it appears, which provides critical commentary on the work in question for which it promotes.
  • The image is of lower resolution and quality than the original (copies made from it will be of inferior quality).
  • No free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information. It is not replaceable.
  • The image does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the album or CDs in any way.
  • The image's inclusion in the article is important because it is the subject of and is discussed in the text.
  • The image is being used for informational purposes only.
  • The material has previously been published in numerous sources, with higher resolution images available elsewhere (Amazon.com, for example).

The use of this image is also fair use for the article, Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai, for the reasons given above, and because:

  • Use of the image is necessary to illustrate a key element of the film, that element being the music.
  • The album is specifically referred to in the article about the film.
  • Use of the image does not harm sales of the soundtrack album or the DVD of the film.
