TL;DR Summary

Taylor Swift fans are suing Ticketmaster and parent company Live Nation for "unlawful conduct" in the chaotic sale of tickets for the pop star's latest tour. The lawsuit alleges that Ticketmaster violated antitrust laws and forced concertgoers to exclusively use its site. The plaintiffs are seeking a penalty of $2,500 for each violation, which could add up quickly based on the millions of angered fans who did not receive tickets. The ticketing debacle also drew the ire of several lawmakers, leading to a Justice Department investigation and a congressional hearing.
