A federal jury has ruled that Live Nation Entertainment's ticketing practices constitute an illegal monopoly, potentially upending the dominance of Ticketmaster. The lawsuit, brought by the Justice Department and state attorneys general, alleged that Live Nation used its market power to stifle competition, leading to inflated prices and limited choices for consumers.
Live Nation defended its integrated business model, but the jury's decision suggests they found evidence of anticompetitive behavior.
