Some of us don’t want to steal. I get that you’re mostly stealing from large corporations, but don’t be surprised if less and less original music gets made if you refuse to so much as pay a small subscription fee for infinite music. Many bands have said that they have stopped making new albums because there just isn’t enough money in the business to sustain all of the time and effort it requires anymore. The problem isn’t solved by downloading all of your music illegally, it is just shifted to a different problem
I go to live shows and buy merch literally every week. I generally support artists directly whenever possible. I don’t need to give these giant corpos money while pretending more than pennies go to the artists.
