I just seen(saw) an advertisement that had "Mountain Song" by Janes Addiction playing on it. What is this world coming to?

and The Ramones are being used in a Diet Pepsi commercial. I think that the concept of "Selling Out" is gone. Bands are using the kind of exposure that was once thought of as selling out as another way to get their music out there (witness: Start The Commotion a la Misubishi) or keep their music out there (witness: STP and Wicked Garden in Ford(Toyota?) commercials).
The times are a changin :S

I can't stand it when I hear good songs in commercials. Example...when the Beatles, Revolution was used in Nike. :roll:

I like the HP ads with Picture Book (Kinks) in it. The ads kick ass, and the song is cool too

I don't mind hearing the songs, and I don't blame the artists for marketing their work. Having X Corporation approach you and say we want to use your song isn't selling out, its not like The Ramones set out to pen a Diet Pepsi commercial.
I will agree it is a little shocking to hear things that you think of as counter-culture in the mainstream, but I say more power to them.

luckily he will be put in jail, so you don't have the risk to hear "lucy in the sky with diamonds" for some ciba-pfizer-whatever commercial. :ph43rVitE
