It is crooked, but what people don't seem to understand about Stubhub is that it's basically individual people selling tickets. Anyone can make an account and flip tickets on it. Everyone from profession brokers to your average joe is trying to get in on it. It's a huge arbitrage opportunity. Bands sell tickets for less than what people are willing to pay for them. I understand the nobility in keeping tickets affordable for your fans and letting your fans access the best tickets, but you need to control the tickets to prevent the arbitrage opportunities. The paperless tickets thing is pretty genius. Other than cancelling or having your CC card stolen before a show, I can't think of many negative aspects of it.
