I understand what you are saying and I would call this a gray area. With or without the notice, does a business have a responsibility to hold something forever? There probably is a limit even with my stove example. However just because there is a notice doesn't mean they can skirt the laws. A product was purchased and they took the responsibility of maintaining a repository for it. I think this is still a point that can be challenged in a court of law. It maybe the responsibility of the publisher to also maintain that copy even if the relationship is now broken between the two parties. As a result of the issues between the seller and the publisher we are the damaged party.
