From Fan Freedom Project: "We, the fans, own the tickets that we buy. That’s the way it’s always been, and the way it always should be.
But Ticketmaster, venues and sports teams want to change that. They want to use a new ticketing technology called restrictive paperless tickets to limit what we can do with our tickets.
Paperless tickets sound convenient. But in truth, they’re a nightmare for fans. Here’s two videos that explain how they work":

MP: It's pretty amazing that many artists (Bruce Springsteen, Paul Simon, Tom Waits, Michael Buble, etc.) must be so blinded by their hatred of market-based ticket prices, ticket scalpers, and secondary ticket markets, that they now support anti-fan, anti-market, restrictive paperless tickets and Ticketmaster's evil attempt to completely monopolize all ticket sales (primary and secondary)! As I have argued before, for artists or their managers to complain about ticket scalping is really to acknowledge their faulty under-estimation of fan demand, and the blame should therefore be directed at the band for under-supplying tickets to its performances, not towards the greed of secondary ticket brokers.
