Is downloading a song from a website without paying for it a copyright infringement?
Only if the copy you're copying was not authorized for general distribution by the copyright owners.
In other words, the copyright owners can certainly authorize free distribution of their music if they want to. However, if you make a download (a reproduction) of an unauthorized copy, then your copy (like the one you copied) is a copyright infringement because you have no permission to make that copy.
