Screenshot of WinFS StoreSpy taken from http://weimenglee.blogspot.com/2005/09/winfs-storespy.html

This is a screenshot of copyrighted computer software, and the copyright for its contents is most likely held by the author(s) or the company that created the software. It is believed that the use of a limited number of low-resolution screenshots: for identification of, and critical commentary on, the software in question, in the absence of a free alternative, on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, …qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information. Fair use //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Storespy.jpg true

The video is copyrighted, but its use in the WinFS article qualifies as fair use because:

1. the WinFS concept deals with abstract concepts. So, for better comprehension, more than text is needed.
2. the article describes a WinFS Item browser that can be used to browse structured data type instances with their relations and properties. Since no existing applications exist which does this, a screenshot is very necessary to understand how the UI is exposed.
3. the software is copyrighted, so free equivalent cannot exist.
4. the WinFS project has been cancelled, and the public preview releases, which were time limited has expired. So it is impossible to use a self made screenshot.
5. this does not limit, nor does it claim to limit, the rights of the copyright holder.
6. it does not assist in illegal reproduction of either the software or the runtime.
7. it is being used for informational purposes.

The thumbnail images in the screenshot is also irreplaceable, as self made screenshots cannot be created. As such, the thumbnail is also covered by the rationale.
