The growth process of the two corns are similar, they are planted, fertilized and harvested by the farmer. Where they differ is the hybridization of the two. They are not the same plant exactly, much like the difference between an Angus beef steer, and a Hereford beef steer, they're both beef but different breeds, and both raised the same way. Popcorn and the "gourmet" popcorn hybrids are both popcorn but different hybrids of popcorn. The term "gourmet popcorn" was coined by Orville Redenbacher in an advertising campaign touting his new hybrid of popcorn.
