Sounds like great "wouldn't it be good if" thinking. I'm more cynical and can't help wondering what price hike Ticketmaster et al would charge for not sending you a bit of paper. Plus delivery to mobile phone also leaves you open to "helpful" advertising subsequently.Quote:
Mobile ticketing has already started gathering momentum in places like Japan, Central & Eastern Europe and Scandinavia. The report hopes that mobile ticketing will soon spread right across the transport, sport, entertainment and events sectors.
Last time I tried to buy tickets from a real live ticket booth (not via Ticketmaster) the folks not only wanted to charge a per-ticket charge for credit card usage, but also for debit card. I also agree with the folks who've been saying recently that these "adminstration" charges levied seem to be getting larger by the month! So you'd not only get hit for "eTicket" but also for (presumably) paying via phone bill.
