Noone forces you to buy it, doesn't mean you have a right to listen to it.

Making money off being a "studio band" is for people like the Beatles. Making money live is what real musicians do.
That's the way you like it, personally I prefer listening to music at home over going to a loud concert.
You can do just that, go to concerts and ignore their CDs and records, that's not illegal, so why exactly are you complaining? They only make millions because millions of people actually buy their CDs or records, it's not like they're taking the money out of peoples' pockets. If listening to a concert is the only real way to listen to music then why do you feel you need to have a right to own a digital copy of that music for free?
