These wonderful people / labels that keep this music comign for us don't have the money to reach a wider audience and the corporations / major labels / media outlets / magazines / MTV etc...that DO have money (more than they could ever use) have not yet decided that the public should be hearing this music again....
Instead we should all heed to what they consider is popular music these days.

It makes me laugh actually, these alternative bands with the 'street cred' are now totally and 100% owned by these labels and media outlets and are now more commercial than metal ever was....

AOR / melodic rock is now the alternative!

Just a few thoughts...
