Ouch, the spelling police.
I agree that what Pixar did was great, but the girl was about to die at any moment. I’m sure a link to a copy of the movie could have “found” its way to the family (in addition to the mailed DVD quality copy) just in case she died before the mail arrived.
Unfortunately, if they did that then Pixar would have officially forfeited their copyright rights. Anyone could make a claim on the property then. Pixar would be stupid to have done that.
It's the same thing if I decide I want to print out some Coca-Cola t-shirts for myself. If Coke finds out and they do nothing about it, then they have de facto given up their rights to their trademark. It's just how this stuff works.

Not really...but some incorrect words are just painful to look at. Dieing is one of those words. Plus since dieing is a real word I figure your browser didn't give you the hint that it was wrong.
