    While disposition of a work downloaded to a floppy disk would only
    implicate the distribution right, the transmission of a work from
    one person to another over the Internet results in a reproduction
    on the recipient’s computer, even if the sender subsequently deletes
    the original copy of the work. This activity therefore entails an
    exercise of an exclusive right that is not covered by section 109.
