Handles fees. >> Reporter: it is a climb-down for the U.S. government, which allowed live nation to merge with ticketmaster in 2010. Critics say the government has no choice but to bring more competition in the live concert industry. >> The engine of lower prices is competition. Competition is something that's been absent in this area for decades now.
