The Man Who Broke Ticketmaster
If you've ever tried to buy a concert ticket the second it goes on sale only to find it's immediately sold out, it's impossible, probably, to read about the success Wiseguy had and not feel as though bots, scalpers, and people like Ken Lowson have been screwing you for decades. This isn't an entirely unreasonable feeling, but it's definitely not the whole story. Bots are a problem and have been a problem since the advent of online ticket sales. But bots aren't the only reason you have trouble buying tickets to popular shows, and more importantly, they also probably aren't the main reason why you can't buy a ticket.
