Fair use rationale for Image:Apple iDisk Icon.png

Image:Apple iDisk Icon.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 19:50, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

should be added: Criticism

.mac is often criticized to be slow and expensive —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mnml (talk • contribs) 10:16, August 8, 2007

True, but this article is only about the iDisk, not about .Mac (now MobileMe) in general. Photographerguy (talk) 00:18, 8 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Many people are critical of iDisk specifically because it's never been very fast even as Internet speeds have improved and iTools/.Mac/MobileMe have been updated. Trying to find a sourced criticism of that but I can say from experience that it's a fairly widely-held belief among the Mac community, even among those who generally like MobileMe. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.86.26.15 (talk) 19:30, 6 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
