"Selling out" is compromising, or abandoning, your principles and core beliefs in order to make more money.
"Buying in" is a change in your principles or core beliefs; doing a 180, so to speak.

selling out = your inner voice telling you that you're nothing more then a soulless cog in the corporate machine
buying in = what you say out loud when agreeing with your boss's stupid ideas

Selling Out implies that you will be left "empty."

Keep in mind, with selling out, the principle can belong collectively to your genre or medium, it doesn't have to be your expressed principle.
A punk band gets huge and starts playing stadiums is still selling out because they subscribe to a culture that defines that as selling out.
And if Ozzie does it it's not selling out, I've learned that much from Norton.
