oints of Interest:
1.) TRIPLE MAXIMUM LETHAL DOSE EVEN FOR SEVERE ADDICTS: At least three days after his death, Kurt Cobain's blood contained 1.52 milligrams of morphine per litre (mg/L) plus traces of a "diazepam-like" substance. This level is widely known to represent three times the lethal dose of heroin, but it is not commonly understood that this level is three times the lethal dose even for severe heroin addicts. Generally, a blood morphine level of 0.5mg/L is caused by 75 mg - 80 mg of heroin, the established maximum lethal dose, even for severe addicts. A blood level of 1.52 mg/L generally indicates an original dose of approximately 225 mg - 240 mg of heroin.
2.) INCAPACITATED OR DEAD BEFORE GUNSHOT: Large overdoses of heroin by heroin addicts are a phenomenon which is well understood. Research clearly shows that an overdose in the range of that received by Cobain would lead to immediate and complete incapacitation and/or immediate death.
3.) OTHER FACTORS ENSURED OVERDOSE LETHALITY: The 1.52 mg/L blood morphine level does not compensate for the presence of diazepam, or Cobain's low body weight, both of which are well proven to substantially increase the lethality of the heroin.
4.) CASE UNPARALLELED IN SUICIDE & OVERDOSE REPORTS: A review of 3586 suicides, including 760 violent suicides, shows no case involving both a gun and narcotic overdose of any kind, supporting theories regarding the absence or extreme rarity of violent suicide among addicts.
5.) CASE CONSISTENT WITH HOMICIDE PATTERNS: A review of cases involving homicides shows many similarities with patterns in the Cobain case.
6.) OTHER EVIDENCE INDICATES HOMICIDE: Officially acknowledged evidence exists which indicates the possibility of homicide, including a misleading missing persons report, postmortem credit card usage, handwriting discrepancies on the "suicide" note, and the lack of legible fingerprints on the weapon. It appears the police were prejudicially in favour of a suicide ruling, and that the coroner was involved in a conflict of interest predisposing him towards this major discrepancy in the evaluation of his findings.
7.) CONCLUSION: HOMICIDE: The evidence indicates that a massive intravenous dose of heroin, and possibly a benzodiazepine, was administered to Cobain. The final of the two known injections incapacitated and/or killed Cobain, and the gunshot is evidence of a homicide staged to look like a suicide. The case should be re-opened by an independent investigatory body.

I don't believe he was murdered. I think he was driven to suicide not just by Cortney but due to all the pain he was going through mentally. It is obvious he was very talented and most idealistic people tend to have a lot more emotion and a wider way of thinking. This could've resulted in him considering pain and sorrow into his mind. Not to mention he was into drugs, I believe. All in all, this is basically the Sid x Nancy story all over again.. well, until the end.

I believe he committed suicide, although I saw a documentary that made Courtney Love like she could have had something to do with it...
He's got a song on In Utero that says , "look on the bright side, suicide"

Hmm I still think that he was murdered. I know I know that's unpopular but it's what I think. They did a special on it some years ago and they said that the way the bullet entered his head couldn't have been done by himself...that someone would have had to help or did it for him.

Ultimately suicide, but brought on slowly by the antics and carelessness of the woman he was in love with. Her knowing that he was in such a funk, and not doing anything to help him, makes it negligent homicide in my mind, though.
Who's living off of his money left behind?

I think that Courtney Love either murdered him or had him killed. She got away with murder!
