A New York federal jury ruled Live Nation to be an illegal monopoly, potentially forcing penalties or divestitures that could loosen its dominance in promotion, venues, and ticketing over time; but ticket prices are unlikely to drop immediately since penalties haven’t been set and an appeal is likely, and broader demand dynamics will continue shaping prices.
