I wasn't talking about having the choice of using another agency, Ticketmaster is predatory and this is a problem.

I was talking about using Ticketmaster (for the lack of other choice) but using one of the more consumer friendly services Ticketmaster appear to provide. I am sure Ticketmaster won't mind, they get their share anyways.

What I wanted to say is that Ticketmaster may be responsible for your ticket costing $70 and not $60, but for all the other bullshit, they just do what is asked of them (by the artists, venue, event organizers, etc... maybe even the fans themselves). Or at least, that's how I think it is.
