Summary

Fair use rationale for Ring Ring

It is believed that the use of this image on the English-language Wikipedia to illustrate an article on the audio recording in question falls under the "Non-profit educational" clause of the Fair Use doctrine currently upheld by United States law. (17 U.S.C. § 107)
The image is irreplaceable; a free analogue is impossible to produce as the original will be covered by copyright for the foreseeable future
Owing to the limited web-resolution of the image, only a small portion of a copyrighted work is used
For the same reasons, the portion of the copyrighted work used is of inherently lower quality than the original, reducing the risk of competitiveness and therefore the effects of this copy on the market for or value of versions held by the owner of the copyright

Non-free media information and use rationale – non-free LP cover true for Ring Ring (album)
Description	This is the front cover for the LP Ring Ring by the artist ABBA (as Benny, Björn, Agnetha, & Frida). The cover art copyright is believed to belong to Polar Music International AB.
Source	May be found at the following website: https://abbasite.com/discography/
Article	Ring Ring (album)
Portion used	Whole
Low resolution?	Yes
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 Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under the copyright law of the United States as described above.
