Many musicians will accept that. I find that many artists who sell CDs or mp3 downloads will respond to an email asking to buy the FLAC or WAV files with enthusiasm. Well, enthusiasm or complete ignorance and an offer to sell pretty plastic trinkets. I prefer the former
I think to date I'm up to about 30 albums bought over the net as FLAC, and another 5 or so bought as trinkets because my friends wanted them (so I bought an extra license for my collection). I also have a nice photo of a pile of CDs just before I destroyed them. Technically that makes 90% of my music collection illegal in that I no longer have the trinket that certifies that I hate the planet.
