Ticketmaster Is Going to Have to Do Better Than That

The FTC and seven states sued Live Nation and Ticketmaster September 18. The complaint alleges the companies collude with ticket resellers, enabling scalpers to buy more tickets than the advertised limit and permitting their resale at jacked prices. This would be a violation of the Better Online Ticket Sales Act (BOTS ACT). They also accuse Ticketmaster of "bait-and-switch" by misrepresenting the price of tickets. The suit blames the tool TradeDesk, which allowed resellers to track their sales, is used to mislead customers.
