I refer specifically to the Cingular commercial, with the Cat Power cover of the Nerve's "Hanging on the Telephone" which has never been released? there oughta be a law.

1. I hate it more when records come with stickers that say "As heard on the
Volkswagon commercial" or whatever the ad was.

Oooh, that pisses me off to no end.

2. No actually
I'd far rather hear original music in commercials than songs I've known and loved that have gone from being anthems of rebellion to engines of capitalism.

6. I hate it when the music in the commericial was a sellout from some band
and yes, that includes Led Zeppelin selling out "Rock & Roll" for those damn annoying Cadillac Commericials. I guess that would have been Jimmy Page since I think he owns the rights to most of LZ's music
