Yes. I've listened to downloaded music at a friends house and gone home and bought the songs I like from iTunes. People who do this are part of the 40% who continue to buy, or possibly the 9% who buy more.

Most of the new music I come across these days comes through someone posting in Facebook or a video on Youtube giving credit to the artists. Then I'm off to iTubes or BandCamp to get it.
