Fair use rationale for use in the article Lucky (Britney Spears song)
This is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use for the following reasons:
- It is a sample of about 21 seconds (approximately 10%) from a much longer recording, and therefore could not be used as a substitute for the original.
- As the song itself is copyrighted, it is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable value.
- The use of 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.
- As a portion of a song that is the subject of the article, it adds significantly to the understanding of the topic and is needed for completeness.
- It is used in an educational article and context.
