that's actually a fallacy, especially because almost all musicians make about 95% or their money from touring and concerts and t-shirt sales etc...

record company gets the rest.

I'm not using this as an argument to support piracy, because I obviously don't support it, but i'm just saying that they used this argument back when they started playing popular music on the radio originally too and it was not true, it actually helped sales.
