It does seem like there are better ways to distribute tickets. credit card / id checks is probably the most enforceable, albeit prone to issues. There's of course adding additional shows or the possibility of adding additional shows that could turn off scalpers from buying up an initial run of tickets.
As I have no interest in screwing around trying to get tickets at 8am when they get released a scalper adds absolute value, he or she does the work for me, they enable me to not worry about when I need tickets, I can get them at anytime from release up to ten minutes before the show for a cost.
