Fair use in The Shins
This is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use because:
- It illustrates an educational article whose titular topic is the recording from which this sample is derived;
- It is a low-bit-rate sample that excerpts less than 30 seconds of a much longer recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording;
- It is not replaceable with a free-use sample of comparable educational value; and
- It is believed that this sample will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original recording.
