I have to agree with this. I've met many more "mainstream"
types who wouldn't like IDM or techno even if it was on MTV once
in a while. Maybe there are a few kids out there though that wouldn't
find it any other way that would love it though. I have to go with "no
publicity is bad publicity" on this one...
