Piracy is killing aspects of the music industry. Look at the orange line on the graph. Recorded music has taken a swan dive since 2004. The entire industry may be doing alright aggregately speaking because of increased concert sales and a brand spanking new revenue stream in mobile, but it's certainly killing parts of the industry. -Not saying that it's good or bad, but its not as black and white as this graph's top line makes it appear.
