Do the record companies lose money by me recording a song from the radio? Doubtful

Given that radio is broadcast across the whole of the UK, that must mean milllllllllllions of pounds are being lost for every song, because potentially, everyone can "download" (record) it and never have to buy the CD!

(Yes I know they cut off the start/ending, but you can still get most of the song!)
Artists get paid for songs played on the radio.
