Reply to comment by Dangerous_Affect_861 in ELI5: Everyone knows that Ticketmaster is the biggest scumbucket enterprise on the planet yet no band seems able to avoid their grasp. What's to stop a really major act (e.g. Taylor Swift) from performing in venues that are not controlled by Ticketmaster, or just setting up a parallel company? by havereddit

That is true, but what would it take to pull off a boycott of that scale? I bet most people value entertainment now over the slight possibility of future change. How do you get so many people to go against their own self interest?
