Delisting has never meant it is removed from your library for a paid game, in my memory. Just means you can't buy it anymore

Lol our standup+parking lot is scheduled for an hour. Kill me.

I do think that part of the Ticketmaster hate is them being the bad guy for the venues or artists with the prices etc, but they can definitely be doing more. My main issue is that venues can either exclusively use Ticketmaster or not at all, and all the hidden fees.
