 * 1. First Factor: Purpose and Use

The first fair use factor is “the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes.” 17 U.S.C. § 107(1). The “mere fact of a commercial motivation rarely pushes the first factor determination against fair use,” Capital Records, LLC v. ReDigi Inc., 910 F.3d 649, 661 (2d Cir. 2018), as even the illustrative uses in the statutory preamble are “generally conducted for profit.” Campbell , 510 U.S. at 584. Rather than turning on commerciality, “this factor favors secondary uses that are transformative, meaning that the use ‘adds something new, with a further purpose or different character, altering the first with new expression, meaning, or message[,]’ rather than merely superseding the original work.” ReDigi, 910 F.3d at 660 (quoting Campbell , 510 U.S. at 579); see also  Authors Guild, Inc. v. HathiTrust , 755 F.3d 87, 96 (2d Cir. 2014)
