| indeed, don't forget, Clear Channel not only owns TicketMasher, they also own the venues and/or the production companies putting on the shows, *AND* they own radio stations they use to promote the concerts.
if a band refuses to book their tour exclusively through CC, they'll boycott their music on the air. Since they own something like 1500 FM stations nationally, they get their way.
this is all well documented any number of places, try a google for 'clear channel sucks' or something like that... |
