Schlesinger v. Ticketmaster class action lawsuit

I got an email from Ticketmaster's settlement administrator today saying I was a class member in the Schlesinger v. Ticketmaster class action and it was settled. Lots of details to read about an apparent discount I will be receiving in light of the settlement. Anyone else get this? I'll be researching and reading up on it, but wondering what your thoughts are?

ETA: Found some interesting information here: http://www.ticketfeelitigation.com/faq#Q1

I received the email on May 1st. You won't receive your one discount code, or know how many others you are entitled to, until June 18th.

$42 million to those who bought tickets from 1999-2013. How much did you think you'd get? $5-15 is more than you'd get from most class action settlements.

I received $9,000 from a health insurance class action settlement. $3,000 from my thyroid medication class action suit. Your above statement is not always the case.

He stated that $5-$15 is more than you would receive in most settlements. He implied that less than that would be in the remaining. I mentioned just two that I received a substantial amount. The remaining, I have been involved in, paid well over $100 or more. Certainly not in the $5-$15 range.

I didn't say it was. There are always exceptions, especially when compared to class actions involving medical and health issues where damages may include loss of life. If the settlement is $42 million to those who bought tickets from Ticketmaster over a 13-year period, how much were you expecting from this class action?

The remaining, I have been involved in, paid well over $100 or more.

Lucky you. Again, that's not actually common, though with all your class actions, I can see why you might think it's the norm.

Anyone know anything about the Ticket Codes (not discounts?). I'm wondering if they will be valid for events I'd actually want to attend.

Might I suggest reading the FAQ?

Today I received a letter that I am involved with a class action suit concerning McAfee Security. They identified me as a past/current customer. This was totally unsolicited by me. I don't know if the settlement will be a $1.00 or a $1,000. All I know is I have to do absolutely nothing to receive these monies. Only a total dumb ass would refuse free money.
