| Ticketing explained...
TicketMaster is an evil company, I know, I work for their competition.. but regardless..
They don't own the tickets, the venues do. Ticketmaster is providing the infrastructure for ticket sales, but in reality the venues are selling to the customers.. So this policy makes 100% sense in that context. Maybe people aren't aware of the fact that you're not really buying from Ticketmaster.. just *via* them.
It's up to each individual venue to construct a privacy policy.. so.. it's not the TicketMaster's privacy policy you should be reading but the venue's for which you're buying the tickets. -- Life is too short to be boring |

only, both the venues AND ticketmaster are owned by Clear channel. they are skimming off both ends. |

Quick FYI, Ticketmaster is not owned by Clear Channel. I used to deal with both companies frequently. They are not associated with one another. |
