Non-free rationale for The Girl Is Mine
- Under 30 seconds
- Believed to not affect value of main song
- Used as illustration for educational article about song itself
- Quality and length won't allow it to be used for substitute for original recording
- Not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value
- Used in The Girl Is Mine as an audio sample. Critical commentary is included in the article. The commentary looks into the 'rap' in the song, which is included in this audio sample. The audio sample adds to the article, as it provides audio for a reader's/listener's own understanding of the musical piece.
