Fair Use Rationale for Thefeelers-playgroundbattle.jpg
What is this image and what is its purpose? A small, low-res unadulterated image of a The Feelers CD album cover, for use in illustrating The Feelers and the Playground Battle articles. The image represents a substantial proportion of the musical output of the subject and is a primary means of visual identification of that subject. What is the source of this image and who is the copyright holder? The source of this image is http://www.smokecds.com/cd/33909?osCsid=d5ok7lj2tibc7dci2tj2d50et3. The image is also freely available from the official Feelers website - http://www.thefeelers.co.nz/discography.php. The copyright holder is The Feelers. 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 very low resolution copy of a CD album cover as outlined above. Any lower resolution would make the image unreadable;
 * 2) It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the CD album in any way; and
 * 3) Copies could not realistically be used to make illegal copies of the album artwork on another CD.
