I don't agree with the author's premise that only a live concert recording is a bootleg. It is easy to envisage bootlegs of well-known and not to well-known studio recordings. In fact, I own several of them.

It is also said that record companies 'lose' money if fans make recordings of concerts. I don't think it's true, because it's mostly of concerts which aren't even professionally recorded. How can the record companies lose money with those recordings?

Also, the people who want bootlegs are people who have already bought the official releases, often many times over. They're a complement, not a replacement, whereas someone buying a hooky copy of an official release affects legitimate sales. Whether the person buying that copy would have bought the official release at full price is another matter.
