Yes. Early media came from bellcore, I believe.  All of your 
intercept-type messages utilize early media without ever sending Answer 
Supervision, so to not get charged for those calls.

Also, more and more companies never send Answer Supervision until they 
are ready for the calling party to respond to their IVR system, to save 
5-10 seconds of billable time per call
