Jury finds that Ticketmaster and Live Nation had an anticompetitive monopoly over big concert venues - AP News
Overview
A jury concluded that Live Nation and its Ticketmaster subsidiary unlawfully maintained an anticompetitive monopoly over major concert venues, ruling for claims brought by dozens of U.S. states. The verdict reinforces long-standing allegations that the company used exclusivity and other tactics to limit competition, allegations that were highlighted by leaked internal messages and earlier courtroom proceedings. It increases pressure on regulators and lawmakers to consider stronger remedies than those in the separate Justice Department settlement.
