Give me actual numbers.

And the central component of folk is that it's the music of the people, which sounds a lot like democratization to me.

I've made this case before but punk is a form of folk music. Gitchyo romanticization straight

it's not the same thing, like ugh fookin hell
Traditional, white American folk does not have a monopoly on folk music, even if proponents of the term "world music" want you to believe otherwise.

Folk encompasses both. Democratized af innit

We should probably get back to the democratization of recorded music that the OP is looking for. I think it just comes down to price and access to production technology. The knowledge of the lowered-barrier of entry to that tech spread through aggressive marketing campaigns with a profit motive, so we actually have to thank capitalism for bedroom pop, not punk.

Nobody gives a **** about folk though so it's irrelevant to the conversation.
