Classical music mostly. Mostly romantic and impressionist, bot I'd like to try some Bartok as well...
Sometimes I'm trying out some jazz, haven't found anything I like though. Oscar Peterson a bit, Miles Davis a tiny little bit, but for the rest...
Oh, and I forgot. That's where the edit-button comes in handy. I like the better pop music as well, well pop/rock (Beatles, Beach Boys, Buffalo Springfield, even some Pet Shop Boys, Los Lobos)
Oh... and don't get shocked; a friend of mine is into country rock, and I like some of it. Poco especially. Crazy Eyes is very good, it's like progressive country. It even has an epic on it. Not with moogs or mellotrons, but with violins and the banjo. It's good, honest! The perfect marriage between "sympho" and banjo!

Eclectic and evocative music, Quirk-pop, Contemporary folk, World music...
That is contemporary music that borders to prog.

I'd have to say metal, i like my fair share of classical and i play jazz in school, but other than Progressive Music, my favorite would be metal.

You didn't list disco. "So now you're back, from outer space, something something something, with that sad look upon your face, I should have changed those stupid lock, I should have something something something, oh I, I will survive."
But seriously, you did forget classic rock which is probably what I listen to the most besides prog (Bowie, Queen, Black Sabbath, The Beatles, Jefferson Airplane/Jefferson Starship, etc.)
Since you forgot classic rock, I chose Classical, as that probably comes third for me. Stravinsky, Vivaldi, Bach, The Star Wars Soundtracks, Tony Banks' Seven, and so on.

I listen to tons of classic rock, Led Zeppelin, Queen, The Who, The Beatles, The Kinks, Deep Purple, The Grateful Dead and Bue Oyster Cult.
I also listen to movie soundtacks, Classical (Mahler, Bach, Bethoven, Bartok, ect.) some jazz, and even some avant garde stuff (Terry Riley).

Flamenco guitar, I have many albums from Paco De Lucia, both solo as with his Sextet. Other flamenco guitarists I like are Paco Pena and Juan Martin and Diego De Moron, Jesse Cook and Ottmar Liebert who blend rumba-flamenco with modern pop, rock and sometimes even progrock.
Guitar-rock: Rory Gallagher, Jimmy Page with Led Zeppelin, Alvin Lee's Ten Years After, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Brian Setzer, Carlos Santana, Wishbone Ash, early Queen, Texan bluesrock like Ronnie Earl
Sixties: The Misunderstood, Animals, Ventures, Shadows, Dave Edmunds Rockpile, Spencer Davis Group, Them, Yardbirds
Electronic music: Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Neuronium, Synergy and new bands like Red Shift, Radio Massacre International and Free System Project
Folk/ethnic: Rumanian gypsy music (great violin), South-American (pan flutes), Indian (Asia) ragas (sitar and tablas)
Classical: piano music like Chopin and Rachmaniov and guitar like Andres Segovia, Julian Bream, Pepe Romero and John Williams.

I like traditional and/or conventional Brazilian music (we call here MPB): old sambas, choros, modinhas, etc. Musical movements called Tropicalismo and Clube da Esquina (60s and 70s) are full of prog & jazz & folk influences.
I dislike some kind of modern Brazilian music, included by many in the category "World Music"... blearghhhh
I also appreciate classical music and old rocks!!!

Excluding prog rock and everything that's prog related (which is the large majority of what ends up on my CD or DVD player) I also regularly listen to bands/artists like Roxy Music & Bryan Ferry, Simon & Garfunkel, Leonard Cohen, R.E.M., David Byrne & Talking Heads, U2, The Nits, James, Led Zeppelin & Robert Plant and some Finnish rock that most of you will not know (CMX, Ultra Bra, Ismo Alanko and his previous bands, YUP, Absoluuttinen Nollapiste). Even though I own almost solely rock albums, I think I am open to all kinds of music, that I find melodic, fascinating and ambitious, regardless of the genre.

I even got a nice little nook in my collection for 8 essential CDs of the disco era!

Classical (Chopin,Bach) and sometimes Jazz although I don't really own
