Depends on the level of comprimise. If the band doesn't even like the music that much, that's
definately selling out. If the band leaves one or two slow and long songs off of an album, that's debatable. I think the line is somewhere in-between.
To me, Muse is an example of a band that has sold out. I mean, the video for their newest song has Twilight clips. (Music videos, as well as the music, is art. I think I should restate: if a band comprimises their art.) That's obviously "comprimising", if not completely ruining their music video.
