True country fans, especially ones that have been listening to The Ranch for years as a safe harbor from pop country, are so diametrically opposed to mainstream music, they would rather hear rock or pop invade their radio station than even the best of what country radios mainstream stations play, ..especially if The Ranch format tweak is successful luring in new ears.
