If the Buzzcocks can have a commercial I don't see what's so blasphemous about the Ramones.

Plus, Blitzkrieg Bop has been used for years in beer commercials.

if artists can make more money to fund their own work by pimping out their older stuff for commercials or soundtracks or whatever, i say more power to them.

This type of thing used to get me a lot more worked up, but in the day of the illegal download, I can't blame an artist for trying to maximize returns on investments.
