The problem seems to stem(from a ruling last year linked here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7722956 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7722956) from the fact that ANB didn't actually specify that the license was staying with it instead of getting sold as a packaged part of one of their subsidiaries. For a core tech requirement, that's amazingly idiotic, no matter what size organization you're in.
