14. What is "Fair Use"?

Some unlicensed uses of copyrighted material may be considered "fair use" under Section 107 of the U.S. Copyright Act, which outlines factors to consider in determining fair uses of a copyrighted work. ( http://www.copyright.gov/title17/chapter01.pdf). Generally, this includes uses for educational purposes and for criticism or commentary (reviews in newspapers, for example.) "Fair use" does not include small quantity recordings or charity or religious organizations; nor does it exempt recordings that you are distributing without charge.

Unless you are sure that your usage falls under Section 107, you should obtain proper licenses for your recording.


That above text is what I was remembering.....
