There’s a huge list.
Even the Mozart Haus in Vienna calls fans of Mozart, well, fans.
The idea that the use of the word fans implies a lack of understanding on the part of Roon labs is absurd.

When the ■■■■ hits the “fan”… 
I have a PhD in musicology but I’m not snobbish enough to feel offended by people who call me a “fan” of classical music…

I am not a connoisseur of Lady Gaga’s oeuvre. But I am a die hard Beethoven head banger.

It’s the internet. No good deed goes unpunished. 
BTW, If Valence is listening, I’m proud to be one of Ludwig’s groupies!

For me it would be ok and important if there would be fans for Beethoven, Bach etc…
This would mean young people are interested in classical music.
I observed in the last 20 years less and lesser young “fans”.
Just plus 50 year listeners.
The classical music genre is disappearing slowly?

Camper van Beethoven is alive and well and he has issued a class action suit against Spotify. Here he in his 1980’s heyday:

So true. I work for a charity that supports a well known German Orchestra. We loose members because they just die away. We actually are greatful for each “fan” of classical music, no matter the language.
