Most bands that people have said have sold out I still like and think their newer music is better. To give you a few examples: Stone Temple Pilots(before they broke up), Foo Fighters, 311, Sevendust, Staind, etc. If I was an artist I wouldn't sell out for money. I wouldn't even consider it selling out. I would do what I want musically and if it pulled in the bucks than let it be.
