Copyright is a fun topic, there's always people that somehow think that they are entitled to violate other people's intelectual property because n reason, like:

The holder doesn't care! They care! They only doesn't have omnipresent eyes to apply the rule in every single place in the world, the fans should be the police to this matter, not the bandit. Think about it, would you like someone stealing the goods of your house, one by one, without you noticing it? Wouldn't you be really crazy mad when you notice, and dozens of things are gone? Think about copyright this way.

People can't afford! Yeah, and this is life, there will be always something that someone can't afford, it's normal. People that can't afford, let them do their trick, you don't need to be a e-Robin Hood, if they want to piracy, because they can't afford, at least let them learn how to search for it! Researching ability is pretty useful, who cares if you learnt it by pirating stuff. And better, if they search and discover it's hard (who knows, a rare song), it'll be easier to them to have the mental image of "this is wrong, maybe I can stop doing this someday". If you just give the stolen goods in their hands, some can somehow build a image that this isn't wrong, and develop people with a twisted sense of ownership.

People can't afford!² There's a lot of Precure Musics on Spotify, and it's free with ads.

Nobody have done anything, since x year, why now? Think of it the same as the copyright owner, but with the police. The police can discover a crime is occurring after decades it started, it's the same with lies, a bad behaviour repeated thousands of times doesn't turn into a good behaviour, it'll be always a bad one.

Everybody pirates something No one is pure, I'm sure there is someone who never pirated anything in their life, but I've yet to know them. If it's something you can afford, or even isn't being sold in your country, well... If you don't take it as normal and correct. Like broadcasts, Precure for example isn't broadcasted outside Japan, nor have any Streaming service that allow you to watch, so most of the fans outside Japan probably watch via recorded broadcast, it's piracy? Is. You could buy if you wanted? Kinda, you can always wait until is released on BD and get it with the AmazonJP International shipping. You can watch in a reasonable time after the original broadcast in a legal way? No. If you really want to watch, sure! It's wrong, but it's the only way, but it's wrong. People says it's a gray area, but not, it's pure black. You won't be sued for it (probably) nor face any legal issue (well, maybe your ISP can fine you), but it's wrong.

I'm jumping here in parachutes (well, technically not, I was dealing with this matter yesterday). I would suggest, like Sannse said, to use a snippet. You won't even need to do the work of editing it, iTunes have 30s snippets and embeddedable widgets that allow you to share it! Eg. https://tools.applemusic.com/en-us/details/1114703684?country=jp&media=all&term=魔法つかいプリキュア&type=album You probably can't embed it directly in Wikis, but you can always see if the Fandom Support can help you with it. You can also link Spotify! That have musics that can be heard for free with ads.

Funny comment about something posted while I was writting this:

You cannot waltz into the wiki, demand a center piece of our work to be removed and then threaten us with bans if we do not comply.

Are you sure you are sane saying this? It's the same as saying to your boss, that owns the company you work into, that you don't need to do what they said. Fandom's platform, Fandom's rules, you accepted the ToS when created your account.

'''Pretty Cure is region locked in every way. '''

I can listen to and buy it, without problem on iTunes, and I'm half Earth away from Japan and not using a single VPN.

They will not care to put it on Spotify.

You never cared to search for it, it seems. https://open.spotify.com/album/0gS63sWmPgiGRsrzgVxawL

​​​​​​Again, I really suggest that everyone accept the rules, delete the content, readd it in a legal way and be happy. The world won't twist itself to comply with your demands simply because you think it should.
