If you include a music clip as part of a research presentation for fellow classmates during a university lecture, then copyright law:

will require that you contact the original creator of the music and ask permission to use the clip as part of your research presentation. 

will require that you pay compensation to the original creator of the music before you are allowed to use the clip in your presentation. 

will allow reproduction of the music during the presentation without the original creator’s permission, based on the ‘fair use’ principle.  

will prohibit you to do so, as you will be breaking the law, specifically the South African Copyright Act No 98 of 1978.  

will prohibit you to do so, as you will be breaking the law, specifically the South African Copyright Act No 98 of 1978.

If you include a music clip as part of a research presentation for fellow classmates during a university lecture, copyright law will prohibit you from doing so, as you will be breaking the law, specifically the South African Copyright Act No 98 of 1978. The law generally requires obtaining permission from the original creator of the music to use it in such presentations.

In order to determine the correct answer to this question, we need to consult copyright law and specifically the South African Copyright Act No 98 of 1978.

According to the South African Copyright Act, the use of copyrighted materials, including music, without permission from the original creator is generally prohibited, unless it falls under a specific exception such as fair use.

In the case of using a music clip as part of a research presentation for fellow classmates during a university lecture, it is unlikely to meet the requirements of fair use in South Africa. Fair use is generally limited to specific purposes such as criticism, comment, research, or educational purposes, and the use should be fair and not negatively impact the market for the original work.

As such, the correct answer would be that copyright law will prohibit you from using the music clip without the original creator’s permission, based on the South African Copyright Act No 98 of 1978. To use the music clip legally, you would need to obtain permission from the original creator or consider alternative options, such as using royalty-free or Creative Commons licensed music. It's always best to consult with the relevant copyright laws and seek legal advice to ensure compliance.
