Aircraftkiller a.k.a. ACK | Abandonware is NOT freeware. If EA wanted to they could easily stop that site from distributing their game over the Internet.

They could, but It's very doubtly that they actually pay someone to check web-sites like this to see if they are posting old abondonded software. Also note that there are more Westwood games, like dune 2 and the Lion King on there.
But I wonder, what the complete rules are about this things. I think copyrights on music have a life time of 50 years if not taken action. Not long ago some of Elvis songs lost there copyrights protection because of that. For computer games altough I don't know. Computer games might loose it quicker.
Size doesn't matter.
