    If every single one of Taylor Swift’s concerts were free, past, present, and future, she’d still probably be a billionaire. Artists don’t really make that much on ticket sales, the ticket vendors and venues are the ones making all the money. Swift’s net worth mostly comes from the value of the rights to her songs, not ticket sales.

      I think you would be right in a lot of cases but does that apply when you routinely sell out these extremely expensive shows like are being discussed here?
