> Memes don't really infringe on the original works. Seeing an image of Peter Parker with some text on it doesn't really compete with the Spiderman movie, does it?

And I suspect Getty would argue pretty successfully that the online use would indeed compete with their licensing of the image on a website for their photographs for example.
