There's no and to it, saying being known is completely changing your original argument into something entirely different.

I do find something ironic in people moaning about bands selling out after they've just got their music over the internet for free.

Most of those hardcore/Post Rock bands just plain can't get signed because they just can't do catchy hooks. Simple as that.

Can't do catchy hooks? Try don't want to, because shock-shock they don't care about being Maroon 5.

Yeah I do, they are and were talented musicians. Writing a pop song isn't hard, they just choose not to. They don't play post-rock and hardcore because they're too untalented to play anything else.

They're plenty talented, I just don' think they offer the right image that record companies want.

Really? That's strange. Doesn't help either of our points then.
