In all likelihood if a band did that I doubt they would care about the integrity of their own music in the first place.

I just grow despondent when people say "that band sold out" when they mean to say "their later albums showed a change in direction." It's like a hot button for idiots that like to insult a band without actually having to offer any logical reasoning.
