Non-free / fair use media rationale – non-free album cover –for Planet Voyage
Description	This is the Front cover for the CD Planet Voyage by the artist Cusco. The cover art copyright is believed to belong to Prudence (BSC Music). Current album covers for the Cusco (band) article are either missing or inaccurate. I have taken this images from Amazon and edited/resized it for Wikipedia.
Source	May be found at the following website: http://www.amazon.co.ukhttp://www.amazon.co.uk
Article	Planet Voyage
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.Accurate album cover for identification purposes.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. It's an album cover, taken from a very public website. There is really no other way to get this other than by scanning the images ourselves.
Other information	The sole purpose of this cover is for identification purposes, and serves the exact same role as on Amazon or any other public information website. As this is simply to illustrate the audio recording, this should fall under fair use.

[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.
