    I go to Symphonic more than any other. Italian, and Zeuhl are following very closely these days. Art Rock will probably rise up again.

I went for Art Rock... not because I like that genre more, but three or four excellent bands are in that genre (I'm likely to add another to this list soon too).

VdGG
KC
Taal
Anekdoten

Four bands I really enjoy.

Then it's Canterbury next and then RIO/Avant-Prog and Jazz Rock/Fusion.

Symphonic is after those 4 probably, but so far I prefer the Italian Symphonic genre more than the English one.

But one cannot forget Anglagard of course, my favourite Symphonic Band.

Gee, I thought Jazz/Rock fusion would be so much more popular than they are. However, I was sort of expecting Symphonic Prog to top the list. Approve

Art Rock is my favourite, with Symphonic Prog comming in second. Third place is shared by (some) Prog Metal and Zeuhl.

I can't say I have a definite favourite right now because I'm not that deep into prog itself yet but Italian Symphonic is interesting me the most. (So I voted for it.)

Prog folk is definately up there with Italian Symphonic, but I still need to know more of both the subgenres (and the rest) to ultimately decide on a favourite.

Symphonic and metal are right up there but lately I've been listening to more metal so I'll go with that.  Follow those up with art rock, neo prog and kraut rock and that about sums me up
Can't think of anything cool at the moment ...
