I didn't down vote but I could see issues with the comment. I don't really see what is wrong with building a site based off of affiliate revenues, especially when the site is adding value. Kayak built a pretty substantial company off this model and there are plenty of other examples. If the issue is with ticket scalping, is a secondary market that horrendous of a thing when the primary market is so inefficient? Also, what about the tickets listed and sold on Stub Hub and similar sites that sell below face-value? If I'm going to pay over face for a ticket, I'd rather have Stub Hub around than the old way of dealing with ticket brokers. I'd venture to guess that Stub Hub has forced more tickets to be sold for > face but has reduced the margin between face and scalp price. I'd also guess that its value in reducing scalping margins has outweighed the fact that it creates more tickets that are scalped.
