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. No free alternative - any other image that shows the packaging of the music would also be copyrighted; the article specifically needs this image to illustrate the commercial tie-in with a wider marketing campaign.
