Summary

Non-free media information and use rationale – non-free album cover for The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (radio series)
Description

This is the cover art for The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The cover art copyright is believed to belong to the record label or the graphic artist(s).

Source

The cover art can be obtained from the record label.

Article

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (radio series)

Portion used

The entire cover: because the image is cover art, a form of product packaging, the entire image is needed to identify the product, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image.

Low resolution?

The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork.

Purpose of use

Main infobox. 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. The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for. 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.

Other information

Use of the cover art in the article complies with GSD non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above.

Scan of the front cover of the booklet included with the eight CD set for The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: The Collector's Edition. Published by the BBC Radio Collection, 2001.

Fair use rationale

Rationale for use in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (radio series):

  1. This image is only being used in the article about the radio series for informational and educational purposes.
  2. It is a low resolution image, in an inferior graphics format (JPEG).
  3. There are no free or public domain alternative images that can be used to illustrate the Hitchhiker's Guide radio series.
  4. It is not believed that this image will interfere with the rights of Douglas Adams's estate, or his current publishers, in the sales of recordings of the radio series.
  5. It is also not believed that the use of this image will infringe upon the rights of BBC Worldwide.
