Okay, I admit I got it wrong, but who exactly is Steve Morse, and why bring him into this discussion if he's not a prog head?

Whether or which, the fact still stands that you have, as Chula points out, neatly avoided every point I've made. For your convenience, I'll list them again:

Big prog bands: Spock's Beard, IQ, Marillion, Arena, Kamelot, Pendragon, Dream Theater, Gapacho, etc etc etc. All doing well, all playing music either without computers or with the assistance of but still playing real instruments.

Big prog festivals thriving. The point about festivals is that they are once a year, so saying the fact that they only run once a year doesn't prove they're popular is like saying Donington or Download are not popular. They always sell out.

Prog Archives. Check it out and tell me those bands aren't good. Look at their top lists for this or last year.

I'm not even going to get into the vinyl vs CD argument, because I don't see what relevance that has to the discussion at all.
