Just throwing it out there, Sony BMG is the parent company of many record labels including Epic and Columbia. Bands who are affiliated with Sony BMG are all on one of the company's labels and not Sony BMG itself. So hopefully whichever label Live went with it, it treats them better than Epic

I checked all the websites, and there is no clear indication that Live is with Sony BMG, besides the fact that they are on their homepage. I guess we'll be getting clarification soon.
