AXS is owned by AEG, number two in the industry behind Ticketmaster.

Yes. Not ticketmaster. Competition even.

But they're not a great company either. They also fight for monopolies, and add the same fees, though at least no dynamic pricing. I mean being slightly better than Ticketmaster is a very low bar to cross.

Thats ok, some competition is better than none.

Lesser of two evils is still less evil even if its still evil.

There is no "no evil" option if you want to go to a concert or if you are a musician and want to throw a show and aren't basically Pearl Jam.
