Instant Live has been bought out by radio-behemoth Clear Channel Communications, and they have been claiming a patent on the concept of producing and selling "instant" CDs of live preformances. They've been sending lawyer's letters demanding other bands cease-and-desist.
Their patent is probably not enforcable in this way, but the letters ARE dissuading a number of smaller companies, who can't afford a legal battle with CC.
And now there was no doubt that the trees were really moving - moving in and out through one another as if in a complicated country dance. ('And I suppose,' thought Lucy, 'when trees dance, it must be a very, very country dance indeed.')
