I also hate it when people illegally download an album. People have no idea how much time/money/energy that goes into making a record, the least you can do is buy it - they're not that expensive. Nowadays, you have access to streams so you can listen to an album for free (legally) and decide whether or not you're going to buy it. Years ago, you just had to buy the album to listen to it.
If you can't afford albums or don't bother buying them, at least use a legal stream (i.e Spotify). It's illegal downloads that are killing the industry.
