But I'm not stealing money from the record company that owns the rights to the music because I had no intention of buying it in the first place. Therefore I have no intention of giving MY money to the record company in the first place and am really just not giving them any revenue.

The way you say it, you make it sound like I'm causing them to lose revenue (which stealing would be doing). But really, I'm just not giving them any more revenue. They consider it stealing because they don't make as much revenue as they project they will from their next one-hit-wonder!
