Not a good day for them. Hope you don't have their stock.

Eh, they will settle and the payout will be offering people tickets to shows they don’t want to see, three hours from where they live.

And I'm calling bullshit. Maybe someone in the DOJ didn't get Taylor Swift tickets for their daughters???

Exactly it.

Breaking up TM and LN won't do anything about ticket prices, ticket fees or availability for high demand shows.

They could give 2 shits about this. Like every other lawsuit/outrage against them, they will apologize, pay some fines..then immediately add some BS feer to recoup that money.

Nothing..not one thing has ever slowed these people. It's really amazing.

If the Swifties couldn't get then, I'm afraid they are untouchable.

No amount of legislation will make enough Taylor Swift tickets available for whoever wants them

This would be a complete misunderstanding of the situation.
