 Are you implying that all the companies that post their copyrighted code
on the 'net have lost their full rights, just because the paper trail is
gone? 
 If you are talking about restricting physical access, then you may have a
point; it's certainly easier to access the material from the 'net then to
get your hands on a paper or CD copy.

 But as far as your rights to the material, I don't see the difference.
