I think you're right. and there just isn't such a market for it these days, especially with younger listeners. but there are still some awesome folk (folk/rock) artists out there, they just need a bit more exposure. I saw some awesome folk acts t the acoustic stage at Glastonbury this year.

Have a listen to this guy, Jon Allen.. (myspace.com/jonallenmusic)
