Article

Optigan

Portion used

Whole cover, in order to provide a complete picture of the cover art in question.

Low resolution?

Yes

Purpose of use

Section: The Optical Disc Format. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as cover art. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. To provide a visual example of the cover art and packaging of the Program Discs.. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original artwork, namely the artist's providing graphic design services to music concerns and in turn marketing music to the public.

Replaceable?

As musical cover art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the music would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. Any other image of the cover art would be similarly covered under copyright law, so it is impossible to replace this image with a "free" image.

Other information

Not sure whether to categorize this, for copyright purposes, as "software" or "album," since it's sort of a combination of both. (And if I'm doing this wrong, please stop by my talk page and let me know, since it's my first time and the process is confusing!)
