File talk:Sample of "Zaina", from Zade Dirani's "One Night in Jordan - A Concert for Peace".ogg

I understand that this sound sample from a commercial recording, and therefore obviously non-free. I feel it's use on Wikipedia is claimed as fair use because:

• • it illustrates an educational article that includes a historical and critical examination of the excerpt;
  • it is a sample of about 30 seconds from a much longer recording (4:11), and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording;
  • it is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value;
  • it is believed that 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.

I believe that this use of the excerpt is in good faith. If the owner of the copyright wishes to challenge my use, I will be happy to remove it promptly. Basstom82 (talk) 23:09, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
