Acquisition
Directly related to trial, acquisition is what marketers call it when you try something and like it. When you click on a banner offering a discount on CDs at CDNow, that's a trial. If you buy something after clicking, you've been acquired. If you're lucky, you'll start receiving great deals on the music you love (also known as "conversion").
