Rinsing sand?

Guys,

What are your experiences/thoughts about pre-rinsing sand for a new aquarium?

Would rinsing the sand reduce the amount/time period of the impending diatom bloom?

I've read many accounts of those who say that the bacteria in live sand is mostly dead already and that the live sand moniker is more of a marketing gimmick. Thoughts?

Cheers,
G
