Fair Use Rationale for Consistency Theory
What is this image and what is its purpose? A small, low-res unadulterated image of a Consistency Theory CD album cover, for use in illustrating the Consistency Theory article. The image is of the main subject of the article and represents the primary means of visual identification of that subject. The artwork is also a subject within the article itself, as a visual representation of a shift in the group's musical output. What proportion of the relevant copyright does this image represent? Image represents a very small part of the copyright for this CD (consisting only of an image of the front cover and no part of the music or other graphics). Is the image replaceable with a free image? The image is not replaceable with a free image, as any alternative representation of this image would also be subject to the same copyright. Any other information that may be relevant Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by US fair use laws because:
 * 1) It is a low resolution copy of a CD album cover as outlined above;
 * 2) The album cover is itself a subject of discussion within the article and is essential in illustrating the relevant point;
 * 3) It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the CD album in any way; and
 * 4) Copies could not realistically be used to make illegal copies of the album artwork on another CD.
