Jury Rules Live Nation and Ticketmaster Ran Illegal Monopoly

A US jury has found that Live Nation and its subsidiary Ticketmaster operated an anticompetitive monopoly that systematically overcharged concert-goers — a verdict that could cost the entertainment giant hundreds of millions of dollars. The case was driven over the finish line by 33 state attorneys general after the Trump administration dropped out of the trial midway.
