			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Late last week, IAC&#8217;s Ticketmaster completed its acquisition of a software provider called Paciolan.&nbsp; Today, Ticketmaster is on the move again with a $265 million deal to buy TicketsNow.</p>
<p> <span id="more-43370"></span>
<p><a title="TicketsNow Homepage" href="http://www.ticketsnow.com/">TicketsNow</a> is a ticket reseller, and in that field, comes in second only to eBay&#8217;s StubHub; Chief Executive Cheryl Rosner said her company sold $202 million in tickets during 2006.<img align="right" alt="Ticketmaster Obtains TicketsNow" src="http://images.ientrymail.com/webpronews/article_pics/ticketmaster_logo.jpg" /></p>
<p>2007 figures remain unavailable, but it looks as if TicketsNow is destined to remain on an upward trend.&nbsp; <a title="&quot;Ticketmaster Buys Major Reseller&quot;" href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB120036522352890281.html?mod=googlenews_wsj">Ethan Smith</a> reports, &quot;Ticketmaster President and Chief Executive Sean Moriarty said the company plans to share revenue from its new division with clients that own venues or promote events,&quot; and that&#8217;ll certainly be a popular way of handling things among potential customers.</p>
<p>This is a fairly tumultuous time for IAC, however, with a <a title="&quot;IAC Jimmies The Ask CEO Office&quot;" href="http://www.webpronews.com/topnews/2008/01/09/iac-jimmies-the-ask-ceo-office">switch</a> at the top level of Ask.com taking place less than a week ago.&nbsp; Looking farther back, a year-long view of IAC&#8217;s stock is downright depressing, and in the near future, there&#8217;s the impending five-way <a title="&quot;IAC/Interactive: Divided We Stand&quot;" href="http://seekingalpha.com/article/60209-iac-interactive-divided-we-stand?source=side_bar_long_ideas">split</a> of the corporation.</p>
<p>The TicketsNow acquisition won&#8217;t be a cure-all, then, yet it should help bring in a few more dollars.</p>
