Ticketmaster dropped the ball when it came to selling tickets for the Taylor Swift Eras Tour. Could it be the thing that finally gets the government to take antitrust action?
On November 15th, millions of people with presale codes logged on to Ticketmaster to get tickets for the Taylor Swift Eras Tour — or at least they tried to. The website, run by the massive entertainment company Live Nation Entertainment, struggled under the load, with many users getting errors and being told their information was incorrect. Things only got worse from there.
” Taylor Swift responded to the controversy by saying that she and her team were repeatedly assured the company’s systems would be able to handle the traffic . In 2022, the Department of Justice opened an antitrust investigation into Live Nation after several lawmakers raised concerns about it being a monopoly and whether there was enough competition in the ticket-selling space.
