End Ticketmaster's Monopoly

The failed rollout of tickets for Taylor Swift’s forthcoming concert tour made clear what countless musicians already know: Ticketmaster is fundamentally broken.

And now, thankfully, the Department of Justice is getting involved.

According to a report in The New York Times, the DOJ is investigating whether the company has abused its power within the multibillion-dollar live music industry and worked to maintain a monopoly on concert ticket sales.

Since merging with LiveNation in 2010, Ticketmaster has grown into a behemoth with unmatched size or scale in the industry, selling hundreds of millions of tickets each year.

When it signed off on the merger in 2010, the Department of Justice placed conditions on the new company, but since then, the company has repeatedly violated those terms.
