It's not really true for phone either. A lot of people would like to be 
called if the company can't ship their overnight order on time, for 
example. One of the problems with MacWarehouse is that they don't allow 
you to say "use this information to contact me about my order, but 
don't use it to send me spam".
Personally, I don't want telemarketing calls from anyone--except Apple. 
If Apple wants to call me up and ask me to take part in market 
research, that's fine. (They did once.)
