Fair Use Put simply, fair use is the ability to use "copyrighted material done for a limited and "transformative" purpose, such as to comment upon, criticize, or parody a copyrighted work. Such uses can be done without permission from the copyright owner. In other words, fair use is a defense against a claim of copyright infringement. If your use qualifies as a fair use, then it would not be considered an illegal infringement" (Stim, 2013). But what signifies this use? According to Rich Stim, a copyright attorney and his Copyright and Fair Use page through Stanford University, he mentions that fair use analysis falls into two categories: A) Commentary and Criticism: The best example is if the work in question is used for a book review, or perhaps a new music album. You would be able to legally use samples of the copyrighted work in order to convey your point. B) Parody: Likewise, a parody requires usage of some of the initial source material. While the actual allowable extent may be a little ambiguous, it is generally understand that a considerable amount may be sampled in order to allow the audience to understand both the original intent and then the potentially satiric end result . 5.
