Eventually most 'underground' phenomena become mainstream and are capitalized upon.
That usually means that its central values change somewhat, often to something with less edge, but it can also mean that new people learn about this thing and develop it in a good way.
Don't tell me that skateboarding isn't developing faster now than 15 years ago, since many more kids spend all their time developing tricks and style. Of course there are also more wankers around, claiming they're the real deal, but fuck 'em...
