Trent Reznor had some thoughts on that:

"My guess as to what will eventually happen if / when Live Nation and TicketMaster merges is that they'll move to an auction or market-based pricing scheme - which will simply mean it will cost a lot more to get a good seat for a hot show. They will simply BECOME the scalper, eliminating them from the mix."

I think is partially already in place? Ticketmaster now allows users to resell their tickets via their website: http://www.ticketmaster.com/ticketexchange/
