No

Stans make up a very small percentage of fanbases.

For instance, if Rih releases an album would certain gorls not support because
they stan for Bey or Ciara, even though they may love the new album?

Are you trying to imply that the Beys prevented R8 from getting a release date?

If I like an album, I'm buying it.

I was thinking that same thing too.

However I recall a gorl on Twitter, who I think was Bey stan, spreading a link around for filth the day 'Two Eleven' leaked.
So that kind of made me wonder just how much of an effect stuff like that has on sales.

Oh I agree 100%, but I do think some people take this stan mess very seriously.

Most of the people who act like big stans online aren't purchasing their fave's albums. Some of the biggest stans I've seen don't really participate in online fuckery.

Stans be SO into the music, they couldn't possibly buy everything they listen to. Stans listen to everybody's shit before the media can even finish listening.
They know all the bootleg sites and stuff.

If anything their buying power is almost irrelevant. General public buys CD's, cause they do not know better or cannot be bothered to google zip files.

I only buy indie or obscure hard to find albums, or Kellz and Bran. I enjoy buying Dawn's music, knowing it will directly get to her. I wouldn't bother purchasing a Ciara album however.
I bought Bey, cause of the hype, I wanted to get in immediately. And I felt for 17 vidyas she deserved my coin.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Some artists have some of the LARGEST "stan" groups and stay flopping. :uhh: That just proves that its more about capturing the interest of the general public or at least your particular audience.
