Rationale of fair use for Araw Mo[edit]

The image Araw_Mo_MV_-_Nina.jpg is being linked here; though the picture is originally copyright, I feel it is covered by fair use because:

1. The image is a screenshot from a promotional music video originally created by Warner Music Philippines, and intended for wide distribution.
2. No free or public domain images have been located for this single.
3. The image does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the single or music video in any way.
4. For an article containing discussions of a music video, a screenshot is arguably the most important image that could be included. This is a screenshot from the video, intended by Warner Music Philippines for wide distribution. As such, it has future historical significance, and is a more appropriate choice than any other image available.
5. Its inclusion in the article is important because it suggests something of the video's style.
6. The image is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original single or music video in any way.

Licensing[edit]

This image is a screenshot from a copyrighted music video or promotional video for a music artist, and the copyright for it is most likely held by the producers of the video and possibly also by the music artist. It is believed that the use of a limited number of low-resolution screenshots for identification and critical commentary on the music video in question where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information, on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under the copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.
