But actually, because of the way they're made - you start off with this lump of clear plastic and then you stick the foil on it, and then you stick a label on top of that - it's much thinner on the label side than it is on the other side...

Anschutz Entertainment Group, who is responsible for this incorrigible (yet unsurprising) selling of Jackson’s comeback, is able to hide behind one thing—its bottom line. As with any business, AEG will only sell what people are willing to buy. As it turns out, all 50 of the concerts have sold out in what is being touted as “record time.” Although there seem to be hints of ticket-site scamming...
