Talking of Live Nation (mind you that depends if you scroll up or down), Billboard has reported that it is looking increasingly unlikely the live music conglomerate will renew its ticketing relationship with Ticketmaster.

There has been speculation that Live Nation may take ticketing in-house for about a year now, after the promoter's CEO, Michael Rapino started to indicate that he wanted more control over the sale of tickets to his firm's venues and events.

Ticketmaster's current relationship with Live Nation ends in 2008 and is thought to accounbt for 10% of Tickemaster's overall revenues.
