Time to charge even more? Ticketmaster and Live Nation merge to form Live Nation Entertainment
Paid Content reports that Ticketmaster and Live Nation have announced plans for a merger. The deal is a tax-free, all stock merger with a combined
value of approximately $2.5 billion, and the new entity will be called Live Nation Entertainment.
Together, the two firms will have significant control over live music in North America. Live Nation is a significant concert promoter and Ticket
Master remains the dominant ticketing service. The deal is subject to regulatory approval and represents another difficult situation for the major
record labels.
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

It is like watching the guy you hate at school the most team up with the guy at work you hate the most.
