I also remind those interested of the  paper by PM Davis and MJ Fromerth, 
"Does the arXiv lead to higher citations and reduced publisher downloads for mathematics articles?"
http://arxiv.org/pdf/cs.DL/0603056
which also  discusses the HM's paper.
 From the abstract: 
"There was
little support for a universal Open Access explanation, and no empirical support for Early View.
There was some inferential support for a Quality Differential brought about by more highly citable
articles being deposited in the arXiv."
