However, I can only assume Porsche's copyrighted material to a certain degree has some educational value.

Hence, I repeat myself:

"Section 107 contains a list of the various purposes for which the reproduction of a particular work may be considered “fair”, such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research. Section 107 also sets out four factors to be considered in determining whether or not a particular use is fair:

1. the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes;

2. the nature of the copyrighted work;

3. amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and

4. the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work."


Nor do I believe jhbrennan posted the material for commercial gain.

I actually believe jhbrennan posted Porsche's copyrighted material under the same premise as Loren did when he posted Porsche's copyrighted material on his website..."For nonprofit educational purposes."

But short of that, I acknowledge that jhbrennan most likely didn't have Porsche's permission to post Porsche's copyrighted material.

But then again, why does "Section 107" exsist at all?

I am happy to discuss my site on my site.

Maybe we can end this diversion from the original posters question and get back on topic.

You likely own many copyrighted books/novels etc., etc.
That does not give you the right to sell or copy them. But if someone to takes your book or copies it - they are the violators. Exactly the same here.

I will not post on this subject again - it is not this threads topic.
Please get back on topic here.

Actually, there's no diversion from the original poster's "questions".

OP posted a source for Mobil 1 5W-50.

Someone questioned about Mobil 1 5W-50 in the thread.

Someone posted that Mobil 1 5W-50 was on Porsche's Aprroved Oil List.

Unfortunately, someone posted the "taken" material from your website.

That "taken" material just happened to be Porsche's copyrighted material.

Despite this issue, bottom line, Mobil 1 5W-50 appears on the Porsche's Aprroved Oil List.

We know that because someone had posted the list here. And it clearly showed Porsche's copyright on it.

"For Nonprofit Educational Purposes"

Class dismissed.
Thread closed (my apologies to Joe W who started a very well intentioned thread)

IIRC, you can obtain a copy of the latest Porsche recommended oil list from your dealership.
