Summary

Short, relatively low-quality mono sound sample from "Because" by The Beatles.

• Artist: The Beatles
• Songwriters: Lennon–McCartney
• Producer: George Martin
• Format: Ogg Vorbis
• Length: 25 seconds
• Copyright: Warner Music UK

Rationale of fair use for audio sample

This is a mono sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion in the Because (Beatles song) article is claimed as fair use because:

• It illustrates an educational article specifically about the song from which this sample was taken.
• It is a sample of less than 30 seconds and no more than 10% of the original recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording or to recreate the original recording.
• It is of a lower quality than the commercially available digital versions of the original recording.
• It is not replaceable with an un-copyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
• This sample will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original recording.

The use of the excerpt is in good faith, and its inclusion enhances the quality of the subject article without reducing the commercial value of the recording from which it was drawn.
