Juicio antimonopolio
Live Nation antitrust trial opens in New York with DOJ monopoly claims
Reportado por IA Imagen generada por IA
The U.S. Department of Justice opened its landmark antitrust trial against Live Nation on March 3, 2026, in New York federal court, accusing the company—which owns Ticketmaster—of maintaining an illegal monopoly in concert ticketing and promotion. Prosecutors detailed anticompetitive practices harming fans, artists, and venues, while Live Nation lawyers denied monopoly power in a competitive market. The case follows a May 2024 lawsuit amplified by the 2022 Ticketmaster crash during Taylor Swift's Eras Tour presale.
El juicio antimonopolio de Live Nation se reanudó tras un acuerdo parcial del DOJ, con el testimonio del CEO Michael Rapino el 19 de marzo. Rapino defendió a la empresa de las acusaciones de monopolio y abordó los embarazosos mensajes de Slack sobre las elevadas tarifas. Los Estados pretenden disolver Live Nation y Ticketmaster.
