Nah, I'd leave it the way it is
While scalpers suck, I don't agree with the idea that Ticketmaster should just raise their prices to scalper level, because the scalpers will always charge more, until demand meets supply anyway. Plus scalpers never get all of the tickets, so there are plenty of people who are able to pay face value for an event who wouldn't be able to afford 200 dollar concert tickets.
It's just one of those greedy unfair practices that will always be around because lots of people like making money doing nearly nothing and there is really no way to stop them, plus why should I a fan have to be a gossip freak or research everything about the band or singer to be able to buy tickets, I should be able to see any show I want if I can afford tickets, not because I know what the lead singers name is or when it's their birthday.
