Non-free / fair use media rationale for Sonic R
Description	Box art for Sonic R.
Source	Unknown, but can easily be replaced by known sources if someone wants to raise the issue.
Article	Sonic R
Portion used	Just the box art, which is trivial compared to the game as a whole, the actual product being sold.
Low resolution?	Web resolution.
Purpose of use	Identify the subject of the Sonic R article and show its art style.
Replaceable?	Irreplaceable. It's a copyrighted cover; no free image is possible that is also correct for what the cover actually is. No art has been released into the public domain to my knowledge.
