updates: The US Department of Justice has filed a civil antitrust lawsuit against Live Nation and Ticketmaster, alleging monopolization and predatory practices in the live entertainment industry. Colorado has joined the lawsuit. The lawsuit seeks to break up Live Nation-Ticketmaster and increase competition in the industry. The DOJ's investigation was prompted in part by Taylor Swift's tour debacle and a Senate hearing in 2023. Ticketmaster has a history of clashes with artists and fans. The antitrust lawsuit is part of broader efforts by the Biden administration to address antitrust concerns. The DOJ's lawsuit aims to break up Live Nation Entertainment, which controls 70% of the US ticket-selling market. Experts suggest that changes may not happen soon, as the lawsuit is likely to be a long process. Live Nation and Ticketmaster deny acting in a monopolistic manner. Variety Executive Music Editor Jem Aswad believes that even if the companies are broken up, it is unlikely that things will get better for fans.

Version 0.47 (2024-05-23 20:54:17.891000)
updates: The US Department of Justice has filed a major antitrust lawsuit seeking to break up the alleged monopoly in the live music industry between concert promoter Live Nation Entertainment and its subsidiary, bookings website Ticketmaster. The lawsuit claims that Live Nation has abused its dominant market position to raise ticket fees, squeeze out competitors, and limit choices for fans, venues, and artists. Ticketmaster's pricing practices and lack of alternatives have long been a political issue in the United States. The move against Live Nation comes as the Biden administration is seen by voters as failing to do enough to curb inflation. Live Nation, which merged with Ticketmaster in 2010, has grown into a $22 billion global giant that produces over 30,000 concerts annually for nearly 500 touring artists across its network of over 265 North American venues. The lawsuit alleges that Live Nation has used unlawful tactics to maintain its dominance, including threatening and retaliating against venues and locking up artists to exclusive promotion deals.

Version 0.46 (2024-05-23 18:12:18.240000)
updates: The US Department of Justice has filed a civil antitrust lawsuit against Live Nation and Ticketmaster, alleging monopolization and predatory practices in the live entertainment industry. The lawsuit accuses Live Nation-Ticketmaster of engaging in actions that harm competition, resulting in higher costs for fans, limited opportunities for artists, and reduced choices for venues and promoters. The DOJ aims to break up Live Nation-Ticketmaster, which controls over 265 concert venues in North America and generates over $22 billion in annual revenue globally. The DOJ's lawsuit is supported by attorneys general from 30 states and Washington, D.C. The investigation was prompted in part by Taylor Swift's tour debacle, where Ticketmaster canceled a public sale after selling out all tickets during a pre-sale. The antitrust lawsuit against Live Nation-Ticketmaster is part of broader efforts by the Biden administration to address antitrust concerns and reflects a growing push for regulatory intervention in various sectors.

Version 0.42 (2024-05-23 18:06:11.764000)
updates: The US Department of Justice has filed a civil antitrust lawsuit against Live Nation and Ticketmaster, alleging monopolization and other unlawful conduct in the live entertainment industry. The lawsuit accuses Live Nation-Ticketmaster of exercising its monopoly power, resulting in higher ticket prices for music fans and limited opportunities for artists and smaller promoters. The antitrust lawsuit is supported by attorneys general from 29 states and Washington, D.C. Colorado has also joined the lawsuit, alleging that Live Nation's ticketing and booking practices have harmed consumers. The DOJ's investigation was prompted by Taylor Swift's tour debacle and a Senate hearing that criticized Live Nation's opacity and inability to prevent bot purchases of tickets. Live Nation executive Dan Wall has responded to the lawsuit, denying allegations of monopoly behavior and arguing that the companies have a low profit margin compared to other S&P 500 companies. Attorney General Merrick Garland emphasized the negative impact of Live Nation's actions on consumers and industry participants, stating that breaking up the company is necessary to address inflated fees, limited concert opportunities for artists, and reduced options for venues and promoters. Live Nation has dismissed the allegations as baseless, arguing that the lawsuit overlooks the complexities of the live entertainment market and that separating its subsidiaries would not benefit consumers. The lawsuit is part of broader efforts by the Biden administration to address antitrust concerns and reflects a growing push for regulatory intervention in various sectors.
