Concerts cost so much now in part because artists no longer make any money on music sales (or author rights fees) because more and more music is pirated online. So they have to make the money back, and they have done it by raising ticket prices significantly faster than the true costs.

It isn't unusual to find top acts these days with some tickets in the $200 and $300 per seat range. It's really a major rip off.

True. I went to Alicia Keys and Neyo's concert last year. I couldn't even see their faces. It was a total rip off.
