Fair use rationale for Alexander's Ragtime Band

[edit]

This is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use because:

  1. It illustrates an educational article that specifically discusses the song from which this sample was taken.
  2. It is a sample of about 25 seconds from a much longer recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording.
  3. It is of a lower quality than the original recording.
  4. It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
  5. It will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original recording.
