Maybe this will finally get the FTC to pay attention to ticketmaster/livenation. It's been one of the most abusively anticompetitive companies out there for decades, blacklisting venues that don't use it for everything and setting ticket price requirements (and then of course charging bigger fees because of it).

It's insanely bad monopolistic behavior the FTC never appears to care about, I dunno, maybe because it's just entertainment or something.
