Live Nation apparently supports this bill, which is suspicious. Their statement in the article makes it sound like this situation is NOT their fault, when we know that it is. Seems real fishy to me, similar to Apple's support for the right to repair bill that continues to allow them to screw over third party repair shops.

That is extremely concerning.

That's because it's clearly something to quell public protest on the topic while keeping their monopoly with tiny meaningless changes.
