Microsoft vs. Ticketmaster. Who do you root for in that battle. What do
you think Microsoft gains by using Ticketmaster's name? The real winner
here is Ticketmaster. Not only are they going to get the revenue from the
ticket, which by the way is a ridiculous commission rate, but they also get
to sue for rights to ad dollars. Microsoft could essentially link to the
venue of each show, driving ticket sales away from Ticketmaster.

I think Ticketmaster must realize that they are in the business of selling
tickets. That is what they do best. Microsoft is doing them a favor by
linking up to their sales order page to begin with.
