There is no real such thing as a sell-out. I've seen too many artists flogged unfairly for selling out (The Cure, R.E.M.).
As far as what they did with Dodge, I have no real problem with that. The pic just gave me a good reason to rag on the band.
If Aerosmith want to attach their name to Dodge/Daimler-Benz, cool. (NOTE: Adidas and Guinness can attach my name to their products after a bit of negotiation.
) After all, I dig the hell out of Moby's "Play" CD, and all 17 songs on the album have been licensed for use in commercials, film, etc. (Nordstrom, Dateline NBC, to name a few)
