Thanks for the tip about edelivery. I must admit that it never occurred to me that the OTN versions could be different from those on CDs, but I rather doubt that they are. Still, I'll use edelivery from now on!

Oracle has just recently set up a website, edelivery.oracle.com, which is an officially-sanctioned way to download those products that you've licensed.
