Ticketmaster, Live Nation Merger Approved: Will It Lead To Lower Ticket Prices–
LOS ANGELES — The U.S. Justice Department cleared the way Monday for concert promoter Live Nation and ticket-seller Ticketmaster to combine after imposing major conditions meant to create stronger competitors and lower ticket prices for consumers. Shares in both companies rose sharply in trading after reports surfaced that the merger would be approved. The rally continued following the afternoon announcement. Assistant Attorney General Christine Varney said Ticketmaster would have to license its ticketing software to competitor Anschutz Entertainment Group Inc. and sell its subsidiary Paciolan to Comcast Corp. subsidiary Comcast-Spectacor. Paciolan sells tens of millions of tickets every year, she said. The conditions would result in two large, vertically integrated competitors – AEG and Comcast-Spectacor – that would vie for ticketing contracts with the merged entity of Live Nation Inc.
