Regarding earlier discussion, I also love the eclectic Indo-Prog/ Raga Rock category, and have been sad in past polls seeing that so many just dismiss it/ don't bother with it. I rank it amongst my favourite categories even though it makes up quite a small portion of my collection.  Clivage has been a particular favourite, but there are plenty of albums to love, and every album I've heard from the category I really like.  Malachi's Holy Music is one of my particular favourites, but I don't think it would appeal to most here.

I voted for Neo Prog over Prog Metal (that said, every category in PA has some albums I've found to like).  My favourite album listed in the Neo Prog category is Marc Cecccotti's Sometimes Around Uranus (or sorry, Saturn, don't know why Uranus is on my mind).  My favourite band in Prog Metal is Diablo Swing Orchestra.   I've actually been getting into more metal recently.

Voted Prog Metal.  There are only 2 subgenres I don't own anything from, Indo/Raga & Prog Metal...Indo/Raga due to ignorance, Prog Metal by choice (sorry Nick) Wink

You don't consider Supertramp, Oldfield, Gabriel, Procol Harum and The Moody Blues to be big names? I figure Heavy only because Rush is in there and Eclectic just for KC/VDGG/GG.

Not really no. 
With exception to Oldfield and maybe Gabriel's music.

I hate Progressive Electronic, Neo-Prog, and a lot of Experimental/Post Metal (except for albums like Lateralus), but in the end I went with Electronic.

Shouldn't Psych/Space and RIO/Avant be separate?

^ They are, aren't they?

I enjoy albums from all of prog's sub-genres, but the one I enjoy the least is Neo-Prog, I think.

I'm very old (58), so I went with jazz-rock fusion.  Hell, I've seen Jaco in concert!  

This is some amazing guitar work by The Lord of the Strings:
