•  Mainstream

  Mainstream is, generally, the common current of thought of the majority. However, the mainstream is far from cohesive; rather the concept is often considered a cultural construct. It is a term most often applied in the arts (i.e. , music, literature, and performance). This includes: something that is available to the general public; something that has ties to corporate or commercial entities. As such, the mainstream includes all popular culture, typically disseminated by mass media.
