Why does it stop being art? That makes absolutely no sense to me.
It's art with a new (and most likely, less pleasant) association attached to it, and only for some.
Because I don't know about the rest of you, but I don't think of Cadillac when I hear Led Zep. The music overshadows the commercials the music was used in. Commercials just don't stick in my head that way. The one exception I can think of: "Like a Rock", because I've seen it for so long. (But I didn't care much for the guy's music in the first place.)
