Fair use in Zodiac Records (New Zealand)[edit]

Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws, and the stricter requirements of Wikipedia's non-free content policies, because:

1. It illustrates an educational article about the entity that the label represents.
2. The image is used as the primary means of visual identification of the article topic.
3. The use of the logo will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original. In particular, copies of the image could not be used to make illegal copies of the album artwork on another CD.
4. The image is only a small portion of the commercial product.
5. It is a low resolution image, and thus not suitable for production of counterfeit goods.
6. The label is not used in such a way that a reader would be confused into believing that the article is written or authorized by the owner of the label.
7. It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted image of comparable educational value.
8. The label is of a currently defunct company, and as such does not impinge on that company's ability to trade in any way.
