Well, considering the other night I talked to my brother and all his good friends who are computer engineers(and in the genius range)--keep up servers for some of the largest banks the U.S. When I told them what happened for this presale- at the absolute maximum 100,000 going online- they laughed thier asses off and said that was completely ridiculous-espcially considering that 100,000 was the world total- split that in time zones and you have more like maybe 15,000 trying to access tickets at the same time. That's nothing if you have it planned out and as large of organizations as Ticketmaster and U2.com. The problem is plain and simple-- piss poor planning. You still gonnna try to say that no server's can handle that? What a joke.
Well, my cousin works for ticketbastard, and they sold 325,000 tickets for the UK venues alone between 9.00 and 12.00)
