BTS is back from military service — and their comeback show in Seoul is expected to draw 260,000 fans.

Yes. A quarter of a million.

Meanwhile, most bands can’t afford gas for the tour van.

In this episode of Entertainment Is Broken, Richard Crouse and Sarah Hanlon dive into the bizarre economics of live music:

• Why mega-concerts are getting bigger than ever
• Why the middle of the music industry is disappearing
• Why touring now costs so much artists sometimes lose money on the road
• And whether the future of music is stadium spectacles… or livestreams from someone’s living room

The music industry isn’t dead.

But it might be… broken.
