Big record labels are absolutely uninterested in this. They get their cut and that's it. Small labels don't matter.

Festival headliners, and other big big big artists in general have managers, make a shitton of money, have a lot of other problems on tours besides ticketing anyway, plus they have guest lists, so in the end they don't care.

Those few artists that are big and care, well, they care to solve the problem for their own situation, for their fans, and don't really want to solve the general problem.

Because in general it's not their problem. :/

Oh and LiveNation is a public company, it has a nice business moat, so it's like a successful unicorn.
