Ticketmaster is an example of a shell company set up to soak up customer anger. Threads breaking down how this form of entity works have been popular from Digg, and through reddit history as new generations learn of the concept.

Entertainment industry labels demand extortionate cuts, surcharges, fees. Venues negotiate their rates. The act tries to squeeze out a pittance in that. All of it is lumped together into one combined price confusing what portion goes where. And every party plays hot potato, "I don't want my name on a price that high, fans will get angry."

Then they came up with bright idea of invent Ticketmaster. Slap that brand label on the price. Fans get angry at skyrocketing prices and shake their pitchforks at the cold empty concrete walls of the Ticketmaster office down the block rather than at the doors of the music label.

Be smart. No one is inside the house at Ticketmaster. Go to the entertainment industry megacorps to voice dissent.
