That's what I absolutely hate about Kurt Cobain.
So many people have to make a huge differenciation between mainstream culture and the alternative. So just because a band has a lot of fans and are signed to a major label doesn't make them a sellout. It's fine as long as it doesn't involve hypocrisy. Green Day used to be against the consumer capitalist system and hated major labels, and then signed to one and only had the explanation of "well, we FELT like it. We get to make our own choices". That's what I dislike.
