Quote: She has a younger fan base so yes that makes her more marketable. Jordins fan base parents are Melinda's. Only problem there they don't buy much music or go to concerts. Jordin after she loses 30 lbs (and they will make her) will be even more marketable. Melinda even if they could surgically give her a neck stays in the same older niche. She'll make less than Taylor Hicks. She can do soundtracks and now be a better paid backup singer, not much more. |

Quote: If you say so. If I'm not mistaken, the biggest moneymaking tours each year are by artists who appeal to people over 30. Someone help me out here, I'm too lazy to try and find concert ticket sales. |

Re: | ||
Quote: Are you fucking kidding me? You're acting like people only have 1 CD player in their house and no fucking lives. Just because you buy Jordin's CD for your 12 year old doesn't mean you can't buy or wouldn't buy Melinda's CD for yourself. My parents are in their 40s and we don't listen to the same music but they still listen to fucking music and buy music based on their own tastes. If anything older people are more likely to buy music since they're not into pirating the way younger people are. |

Quote: Nonsense pick up a copy of billboard. Or read Geffen about marketing music. I'm not saying the parents never buy any music but compared to thier offspring it's like nothing. BTW napster is long gone, kazaa numbers of americans are way down and few tweens know of usenet compared to those who don't. |

Wow, I didn't realize there were only 2 sites you could download music illegally from.
Seriously though your argument about Jordin automatically selling more just because she appeals to younger people is totally out of whack. You're making it seem like people who are 30+ wouldn't know what a CD was if it smacked them in the face. |

I would think Blake would appeal more to kids than Jordin does. She's done nothing to show she is marketable or "current".

Re: | ||

I guess I don't get why Jordin is so marketable. She was as contemporary or current as people say Melinda was.
I don't think any of them will be huge selling stars...if we're holding them up to the standard of Carrie, Kelly and even Daughtry. |

All the lasting bitterness makes me so happy I took the time to text some votes for Blake the other night. Quote: Um, right. Those people who couldn't be bothered to reach over, pick up the phone, and vote for you for free are still gonna be judging you...only this time with their money. |

Geez, I wonder if she meant she wouldn't be judged by Simon, Paula and Randy anymore.

Re: | ||
Quote: No I'm saying in COMPARISON the sales are much much lower than what tweens buy. For those who are 30+ thier buying many cds days are long over. Do some buy cds? Yes some do but as they age they buy less. Is there exceptions sure but we're talking about marketing and that comes down quickly to numbers and demographics. Hey I don't care I think all the contestants sucked this year. I won't buy any of thier cds and have never bought and past contestants either. Nor have I downloaded any. And I do buy cds and download files. Just not those from these karaoke contestants. |

She mentioned judging and voting. I know you're so bitter that it's hard for you to see straight (
