There is a small case for that alright but the problem is you cant go around inspecting peoples hardrives to find out how sincere they are.
In all fairness, I have played tunes off CD, some of which I have downloaded on MP3 - but there are only three circumstances...

1) It's unreleased - i.e. a friend's track, or something.

2) It's a joke - i.e. a one off, one play thing which I wouldn't buy normally.

3) I cannot, for the life of me, track down a copy on wax.
