Fantigue

Here's a question I have.  When writers who are building a fan base, or writers who already have a fan base, start inundating them with "e-book" shorts, novelettes, novellas, co-written novels, shorts into novellas, unrated or "director's cut" versions of previously released works (even when the original works were only released a few weeks before), might we start to see sign of fan fatigue?

The key to making money as a self-published author is volume, there's no doubt about it, but how much volume is too much?  At what point does it all just become noise?
