[edit] Summary

Non-free / fair use media rationale – non-free album cover –for The Megas (band)
Description	This is the Front cover for the CD Get Equipped by the artist The Megas. The cover art copyright is believed to belong to Unknown. Cover art for The Megas (band)
Source	May be found at the following website: http://www.myspace.com/themegas
Article	The Megas (band)
Portion used	Just the cover art, which is trivial compared to the album as a whole, the actual product being sold.
Low resolution?	Web resolution.
Purpose of use	Section. 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 at the beginning of a section discussing the work, to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for.Identify the subject of the The Megas album and show its style..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. Using different image would be misleading as to the identity of the work. Irreplaceable. It's a copyrighted cover; no free image is possible that is also correct for what the cover actually is.
Other information	Use of the cover art in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above.
