Freakonomics just did a podcast explaining why the ticket market is so screwed. Interestingly, these extra fees don't just go to Ticketmaster or whoever the ticket vendor is. The money often goes to the stadium and/or promoter and other parties.
Ticketmaster prides itself on copping the reputation loss by attracting all the hate, while letting its clients (stadiums, etc) escape all that bad will.
