Apparently they won’t sell you seats if you leave a single seat next to your order. Fuck this shitty monopoly

    You’re saying you can’t make a new ticketmaster because first you’d need to make a new livenation and buy out the venues first…?

    That doesn’t mean it won’t work. That just means you’d need to make a new livenation and buy out the venues first.

      A competing service in the non-Livenation venues would be enough to take a chunk of a Ticketmaster’s bottom line and force them to compete again, something they haven’t had to do in a while.

        Not really. Big acts want big venues. Live Nation owns those or has exclusivity agreements with them. It is very much a monopoly.
