Some of the questions pissed me off, a lot of them are based around being inauthentic (lied about liking an artist, stopped liking an artist after they got popular) which aren't so much snobby as just fake.

It's not about being "fake" it's about bands selling out, which is basically changing their sound so they can appeal to a wider audience in other words becoming "popular." If a fan likes a particular sound and the band moves away from that sound and in another direction, I don't why the fan is suppose to be "fake" because he or she doesn't like the new material. You make it seem like if you declare yourself a fan you have to like everything an artist does, even if they the band starts producing cheese, and if you don't then you are "fake." Can't fans have a mind of their own and decide what like what they like about a band instead of the band/producer/record company saying "here like this." Do people without a lemming mentality "piss you off?"
