Ticketmaster - at it again

I don't know what to make of this, my fear is that in no time, they'll be abusing this system. For example, who will be setting the resell caps, and how will this profit be shared amongst Ticketmaster, the venue, and the artist? My prediction is that Ticketmaster implements something similar to their Ticketsnow site on the Ticketmaster site (or auction-based ticket purchases), and in conjunction with paperless tickets, just like that, Ticketmaster has a monopoly on reselling. Please, Pearl Jam - don't use this system. It seems so shady to me.
