I can't help seeing this as a higher level in some grotesque cultural fractal that, somewhere along the line, also involves ticket middlemen monopolizing admittance to most concerts and shows. I don't know if they're part of the same problem or the same problem expressing itself in different ways, but I have a hard time calling this coincidence.
