Description	This 9 second clip of an approximately 43 second composition written for a television series, is provided because it is closely connected with the fame of the television series and the composer.
Source	Recorded analog off a television to a microphone, encoded to wav and recently to ogg by me.
Article	The X-Files
Portion used	9 seconds.
Low resolution?	36kbps, OGG format, 47kb.
Purpose of use	It is used for the purposes of comment on the subject of The X-Files television series and composer Mark Snow, in which articles it is briefly discussed at the place the clip will be linked.It is intended, in the context of scholarship, to inform the unaware reader of a highly recognizeable and famous sound associated with the television programme The X-Files and the composer Mark Snow, while not being in any way comparable to the original product (i.e. the official soundtrack) in sonic quality or commercial potential.
Replaceable?

According to section 107 of the United States Copyright Act of 1976:

The fair use of a copyrighted work...for purposes such as criticism, comment,...scholarship...is not an infringement of copyright. [1]

The clip is used for non-profit purposes and represents only a fraction of the actual work. These two factors are noted as relevant by the Act.
