I’d guess so that ticketmaster etc. can’t identify which tickets are being sold via StubHub. If the domains were identifiable, ticketmaster could block the transfers.

But if StubHub (MarkMonitor Inc.) is visible in WHOIS, then ticketmaster could do a `whois emeraldsummitadvisors.com` and block still block it?
Cat and mouse game with Ticketmaster team..... next up anonymous registrations.
Yeah. That's a slightly more expensive endeavour. The question is is they can scale enough the number of domains and connect to send emails. New domains + not known can have not so good sending reputation. If they use low number of domains, Ticketmaster could start blocking new domains with more than average number of ticket purchases.
