    Ticketmaster wants you to know it’s “all in” on up-front pricing. In a blog post published on Monday, the company triumphantly declared that it’s “putting fans first” and including fees in the first price you see for a ticket. Not mentioned in Ticketmaster’s announcement: An FTC rule requiring that exact change just so happened to take effect today.

    Too little too late. I don’t need to see any band, show, whatever that badly. Haven’t bought a ticket through them in many many years and I never will.

    I got an email about this and they mentioned in there that they’re doing this because of the new rules they have to follow.

    But yeah, they still suck.
