If I have the right idea (I am no lawyer) then a copyright must be hold by a legal entity, which is either a institution like a company or an idividual. And you can't transfer a copyright to a not anymore existing entity, like a broken down company. I guess. *?* Or can you?
And all that assumptions that we need to make about legal stuff. I think that bites each other. "legal" and "assume"... *ugh* (But probably we have no way around assuming something, before we have something we can deal with law.) --Dennis
