I wouldn't have a problem, compensating an artist a reasonable amount for his songs. The problem is that most of my money goes to an (for me) unneccessary distribution channel (iTunes, Spotify, Google Play Music,...), when there are superior ones for free (torrent).

All I got from that comment is that you prefer not to pay for an artist's work.

You can. Buy the album. Don't stream it on Spotify, Apple Music or Google Play, which are very different distribution channels that are closer to renting than buying.
