States Battle Live Nation, Ticketmaster in Antitrust Trial
Thirty-two states face off against Live Nation and Ticketmaster in a New York federal court, alleging market dominance and price-gouging. Despite a federal settlement, several major states refuse to join, aiming to prove to a jury that the companies are blocking rivals and inflating prices for fans. Live Nation denies market dominance, claiming artists, teams, and venues set prices. The trial begins amidst controversy, with a judge rejecting Live Nations attempt to exclude an email mocking high fees and comparing the concert experience to movie theater snack prices.
