Ticketmaster to change sales system

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - February 23, 2009 - New Jersey Attorney General Anne Milgram announced the settlement Monday. She says the changes apply to all Ticketmaster sales nationwide.

The case stems from complaints received about ticket purchases for a Bruce Springsteen concert. Ticket seekers were redirected from the main Ticketmaster site to a subsidiary that charged more.

Milgram says Ticketmaster has not admitted wrongdoing but has agreed to pay $350,000 to the state.

She says the company will also compensate ticket holders who complained and change how it handles secondary sales.

Ticketmaster did not return calls seeking comment Monday.
