Modern music's success

Well if any subject of this kind has already been posted here, please tell me and close it if you want, but there's something I'd like to know.

I'm always astonished, when listening to Aural Moon, with the number or excellent progressive rock artists and the quality of their music. And for this reason I do not understand why progressive music is ignored by radios, television, and why much people don't even know what progressive music is. Why do major prog rock bands like Marillion or IQ remain in the dark side of the stage ? I can understand for minor bands, who do not have enough money to make advertisements or promotions.
Something I don't understand either is the fact that progressive rock does not encounter the same success in different countries. Why did France choose to ignore this music while other countries like UK, USA or even Poland have lots of progressive rock bands and organize much progressive rock festivals ?
