You should check out the song she was quoting (Sell Out from Reel Big Fish), that's the central theme. People get invested in things and when the creators find a way to retire on their hard work everyone gets mad. It happened recently (kind of) with Revzilla, a Philly-based motorcycle accessories place. They entered an agreement with another place for mega-bucks, and tons of people are "I'll never shop there again!". I don't get it, if I could sell something right now and retire? I'm on it in a heartbeat.
