Selling Out Hurts Those Who Sell

So this is a little off topic, but here's an article I wrote looking at some of the side effects of using rock songs in ads (a topic that, for some reason, everyone wants to keep writing about even though advertisers have been using rock songs in ads for about 30 years now).

Take a look and see what you think. It's my belief that the whole trend has hit bottom. Musicians need the songs so badly they don't care about the whole "selling out" thing and advertisers need something to keep people from zapping away so much they don't mind sharing the screen with iconic rock stars and their songs.
