- Denominator88, on 06/17/2009, -4/+3086% of all Internet statistics are made up.
- 1ofMany, on 06/17/2009, -0/+25She don't impress ya much?
Actually I think it happened before she came around but she didn't help matters. - ayeroxor, on 06/17/2009, -2/+25I'm surprised tht 50% of country music fans have heard of the Internet.
- HiVoltRock, on 06/17/2009, -5/+28Seems a little high...
- pegothejerk, on 06/17/2009, -2/+24It's hard to wire up an airstream. The cable comes unplugged just past the old Johnsons place.
- typicalusername, on 06/17/2009, -4/+25Why do I picture an old guy in nashville saying, "I needs to get me the Web TV!?"
- emecks, on 06/17/2009, -8/+28Good that it's not more.
- iLemon, on 06/17/2009, -4/+23"To put that in context, there were more “Metal” albums sold last year than Country." So no.
- evil-doer, on 06/17/2009, -2/+21FTA: "Or ………. is the sample size to small?"
No... it's *too* small. - inactive, on 06/17/2009, -0/+17you mean Western ?
about the same - mogdor, on 06/17/2009, -2/+19In 99% of all digg articles referring to statistics somebody comments about internet statistics being made up.
- eShinn, on 06/17/2009, -0/+16Nah, cousin. Y'gotta git yer-self a shovel and dig into one o'them tubes, ya hear?
- deadasdisco, on 06/17/2009, -5/+20i'd say it's split evenly between country and (commercial) rap music fans.
- mogdor, on 06/17/2009, -1/+16.........and what percentage of people with low income and live in a trailer are country music fans?
- hypnosmurf, on 06/17/2009, -2/+16This may shock you.
The Nielsen Sound Scan report for Country Music found album sales dropped 24% from the previous year’s numbers. To put that in context, there were more “Metal” albums sold last year than Country. - eShinn, on 06/17/2009, -1/+13And 80% of those STILL think he was. The other 20% think he still IS a great president.
- xdfgf, on 06/17/2009, -3/+14A ***** redneck one.
- govsucks, on 06/17/2009, -9/+20Ah yes, make fun of the rednecks. You guys are all so open minded and culturally diverse. I just can't figure out why Rednecks dislike liberals. Can't seem to figure out why blacks dislike the KKK either.
/s - xenuxenuts, on 06/18/2009, -0/+11Yeah, they might discover better music.
- Bologner, on 06/17/2009, -0/+11I heard it was 72%.
- gimmeslack12, on 06/17/2009, -2/+13It might be a shock to us Diggers, but it is a fact that you CAN live without the internet.

- AmusedToDeath, on 06/17/2009, -0/+8Nah. I live in Nashville. It's a fairly tech-savvy modern city.
- inactive, on 06/17/2009, -8/+16Typical Digg commenter on this story - 'hey now, them country folk are ***** inbred losers with no teeth.'
Same commenter on a story about Republican saying something racist - 'hey now, you evil Republicans are so full of hate and evil. Why can't you just love other people?'
See the hypocrisy kids? - IllBeBack, on 06/18/2009, -0/+7About 137.4%.
Math brought to you by the Iranian government. - enozten, on 06/17/2009, -2/+9this is neither here nor there but i'd do taylor swift hard.
- cor315, on 06/18/2009, -0/+7"The Nielsen Sound Scan report for Country Music found album sales dropped 24% from the previous year’s numbers. To put that in context, there were more “Metal” albums sold last year than Country. Maybe pirating music was never really the issue with lackluster album sells over the last few years. Bad music and a poor economy could very well be the main reason the music industry is in such a slump. I knew it!"
Did no one read the ***** article?? - eShinn, on 06/17/2009, -0/+7@mhummel
Man, the CD shop near the only street-signal in your town must be difficult to browse.
"Country" / "The other kind" - Hero0fTime, on 06/17/2009, -0/+7I remember the days of watching her music video on TRL on mute. Good times.

- Crownz0r, on 06/17/2009, -5/+12THE INTERNETZ IS THE DEVIL!
- Hu99, on 06/18/2009, -0/+6Go for it. Personally I love humor based on stereotypes of racial and cultural phenomena.
- saucercrab, on 06/17/2009, -2/+8"thought" is being a bit gracious...
I think these people - along with Bush - like to use their gut for problem solving. - cor315, on 06/17/2009, -0/+6I am predicting that XkenX87 and 47+ other people didn't read the article.
- acklefutz, on 06/17/2009, -0/+6duh...52% of people know that.
- cor315, on 06/17/2009, -2/+8And 100% of them believe everything they see on Fox News.
