[edit] Summary

The user interface of the 5th Generation iPod, shown mid-way through playing a song by Gorillaz. Actual duration of Feel Good Inc. is 3:41, not 5:01 as shown. Cropped from a promotional image by Apple at [1].

[edit] Licensing

[edit] Rationale

  • The software is copyrighted, and so there is no free alternative.
  • It stands to reason that the maker of the image would release an image that they were content to identify their product by. An image made by a third party may be less desirable from the point of view of the designers of the software.
  • A perfect screenshot would be difficult; the image quality would be poorer because it would be of the screen, and altered from the screen to the lens of the camera.
  • The image is used for identification and critical commentary of the interface.
  • The image does not infringe upon the merchantability of Apple.
  • The image is used for educational purposes and freely available to anyone with internet access.
