Firstly, it's the record compainies that take most of the cut from most mainsteam records, if you really want to support a band it is better to buy the merch or go to a concert. Secondly, if everyone stopped filesharing all of a sudden it would kill way more artists than it would save. For many bands on smaller labels P2P is the only way to get their music heard and by stopping it they'd lose a lot of potential fans and all music fans' money would go to further line the pocket of popular artsists. Lastly, if you don't like what's on the radio these days, don't listen to it.
