It is expected to be bought by Comcast-Spectacor, a subsidiary of Comcast Corp. This would help AEG and Comcast-Spectacor vie for ticketing contracts with the combined Live Nation-Ticketmaster.</p><p>WHAT'S NEXT: Now the companies are on the verge of forming their new company, to be called Live Nation Entertainment.</p><img src="http://admatch-syndication.mochila.com/images/ad.gif?aid=67769834&bid=informcom" /></div><div id="copyright"><div>
