getBusy Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 (edited) Fascinating how people choose not to read the FIRST LINE of the articles they share: Quote The inquiry predates the botched presale of Taylor Swift tickets Anyway, happy it's happening one way or another Edited November 18, 2022 by getBusy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rep2000 Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Good. If it's Taylor Swift is the one who opens the floodgate taking down Ticketmaster's monopoly, then she would be several generations' hero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attitude Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Apparently Ticketmaster works with resellers and gets a cut of the profits. (Allegedly). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vale9001 Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 (edited) As non american i don't understand this news. What ticketmaster did wrong?. I mean they clearly made some mistakes with the codes and everything but what should be illegal and somenthing to really investigate on?. If they have a monopoly is because the law gave them this power right?. Edited November 18, 2022 by vale9001 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're essentially a monopoly over the live music industry, and while that's not inherently illegal, anything shady they might've done to get there is in violation of antitrust law. Ticketmaster has always been sketchy as ****, so there's no way the DOJ looks at this and doesn't order Ticketmaster get broken into at least a few different pieces.

Kavish Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 The scale of the fiasco has definitely given the investigation the boost it needed. She basically made it easier for them. Hopefully things move at a quicker pace now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Folklore89sm Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 If there was one single fan base big and loud enough to bring this monopoly down it would be Swifties. It will probably never happen but this might be the closest we ever get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chessguy99 Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 This has been going on for decades. They have no competition, so you really can't stop them from doing what they want. Maybe Musk should have created a new ticket company, instead of buying Twitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
