A somewhat-related anecdote: In one of his short
films-about-film-making Robert Rodriguez demonstrates how he records
some of the music used in his soundtracks. He obviously gets a kick
out of being able to apply any variety of effects - including some
impressive distortion - to his cleanly recorded guitar. It's all done
with PT, of course, but it's a good demo of the utility of recording
clean.

Interesting - but that's still a home studio. Is it common practice
in pro studios that record heavy metal bands?
That's a strange way to do it... there are
some techniques that
require sustain and distortion or they won't sound right, even if
added in post-production. But like I said, it's rare to do it this
way.
It's common practice in the metal world afaik. One of my bandmates
has a little (Reaper) based homestudio and virtually all metal
bands he records are re-amped through his collection of tube amps.
