Let's face it, they could have gotten their album out even if Reprise had rejected it. Because, as we know, a reject doesn't mean it's bad.  They could have gone to Interscope or a number of independent labels that would have jumped at the chance to have Fleetwood Mac.
Slipping intentionally commercial songs into a FM CD at this point just soils the work and, clearly, does not get them enough radio play anyway.

"lets just do what we want"
i do basically think that they do , do what they want already. or at least they did on syw. but i also see nothing wrong with an artist wanting to have a commercial success. i think when an artist/band puts out new material, they want some kind of commercial success/air play/ call it what you want.. but a hit song, generally will bring up the number of sales , than hurt the number of sales. and when i say have a commercial success, that doesnt mean i want them to lower there standards of writing because if whats out there today..
