Cover for the Alanis album Now Is the Time (1992). Image copyright is owned by MCA Records.
This image is of a cover of an audio recording, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher of the work or the artist(s) which produced the recording or cover artwork in question. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of such covers
qualifies as fair use under the copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Misplaced Pages or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Misplaced Pages:Non-free content for more information. | |||

Rationale of fair use for Now Is the Time
The image NowIsTheTime1992cover.jpg is being linked here; though the picture is originally copyright, I (Extraordinary Machine 18:09, 20 August 2006 (UTC)) feel it is covered by fair use because:
- No free or public domain images have been located for this album.
- The image is of lower resolution than the original cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, and could not be used as artwork on illegal vinyl or CD copies of the album.
- The image does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the album in any way.
- For an article about an album, the cover artwork is arguably one of the most important images that could be included. This is the artwork, intended by MCA Records for wide distribution. As such, it has future historical significance, and is a more appropriate choice than any other image available.
- This image is used on various websites, so its use on Misplaced Pages does not make it significantly more accessible or visible than it already is. The cover is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original album in any way.
