Semantics..
If you download music and don't buy the CD, you are still denying the various people involved in the creation and manufacture of the album their money much the same as you would be if you stole the CD.

Rubbish, if I were to download an MP3 no body LOSES anything, although they don't gain anything either.
If I steal a CD then the retailer loses the cost of that CD and THAT is the difference, theft carries an associated loss, infringement doesn't (necesarily)
It has nothing to do with semantics.
