Not quite...........what you describe with the airplane analogy is indeed
theft, no question about it. What downloading music is like, is I go to the
airport and make a copy of your airplane and take it for a spin. At no time
was your airplane unavailable for your use.

Oh but you are paying for it. That radio station has paid advertisers who use
the station to get you to buy their products. You are paying the advertiser,
the advertiser pays the station, and the station pays a fee for every time they
play the song. The fee is dependent on the ratings of the station and varies
based on the number of rated listners.

It is NOT free.
