Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The copyright act sets out four factors for evaluating whether a use is a fair use: (1) purpose and character of the use (Commercial uses are presumptively unfair.); (2) nature of the copyrighted work (The scope of fair use is greater for informational work than for creative work.); (3) amount and substantiality of portions used (Fair use may apply if there are substantial differences between the copyrighted work and the derivative work.); and (4) effect on the market. (Fair use does not apply if the use diminishes the value or marketability of the original work.)
