I called up Electronic arts back in '96 to ask them about Amiga support. The lady didn't have a clue what I was talking about.
If a company has forgotten about software it released two years ago how much luck are you going to have in 2010?
They probably threw out the source code a long time ago.

It's a bit screwy, a huge amount of software needs MS Windows versions that are no longer sold.

Make 'em use it or lose it. If they don't republish it say every 5 years people are allowed to copy it. They can keep all other rights.
