Fair use in Fatboy

This image, 5MCD03.jpg, will be linked here; though the picture is subject to copyright I (moe.RON ^{Let's talk | done}) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

it is a low resolution copy of a CD album cover;
it does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the CD album in any way;
copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the album artwork on another CD;
it is used to illustrate the subject in question, i.e. the album.
