And in terms of how it affects us here in Australia, we don't have to directly follow anything that happens in the US.

Our legal system doesn't work that way.

But we do take a lot of inspiration for them because of how big of a country they are and how much power they hold.

So our government would be looking at the US and then working with our regulators here on the ground to see how we could take a similar approach.

And they did actually say, the consumer watchdog, the ACCC, said they were closely watching this case.

Oh, wow.

Yeah.

It is always playing in our office.

Yeah, she's an interesting one.

Basically, there are a lot of artists who have piled on to sort of the criticism of Ticketmaster and Live Nation.

Her specific example was around ticket resale.

So what happened was she announced a North American tour.

And when people were trying to buy secondhand tickets through Ticketmaster,

ticket master the prices were astronomical and that was because they weren't placing any limits on what people could charge for a second-hand ticket and they were also again taking another round of fees on top of the fees they'd already taken the first time and so she came out and said this is ridiculous cost of living crisis you need to stop and they did and that was ticket master that was ticket master yeah but completely separate yeah case whole other kettle of fish

Thanks, Billie.

I don't know what it's going to be, by the way.

I'm ready.

Yes.

Delicious.
