This sounds wrong to me. I'm sure it's Astralwerks that put the import ban
on GC (why in the world would Rising High want to close out a market?).
Besides, RH would have had to have put an *export* ban on it. As for the
legality of it, it happens all the time - if a company has the exclusive
right to market and distribute a release in a given country, and other
companies are deliberately going against that company's wishes in marketing
and distributing it themselves, those other companies might find themselves
in for a lawsuit - regardless of whether the first company chooses to
exercise its right to market immediately.
