If it is all done digitally/online, how can you sign it properly?
If you download a model release/agreement and fill it out on the computer, how do you then sign it? unless you have a tablet there is no way of doing it. And by signing it I mean a proper signature using your own handwriting and a pen. Not just printing your name.

Yes and no.
I've seen webcam companies who ask you to fax it in to get started then they ask you to follow up by mailing the original doc for the very reason you mention. The topic is model convenience and getting up and running. A digital system is simply faster, less resources required, and the original signed hardcopy can still be mailed if needed.
