For sure, Spotify is convenient but you own nothing and you locked with a subscription. Also, you listen what they propose. What happens if your favorite band become removed from their library?

I still buy few albums and keep my library of audio files. (And I get some album for free using the same methods we used back in the days ๐Ÿ˜)

The only songs that have ever been removed from my library (Spotify shows you) are remixes/mashups where the person doing it never had permission.

Not really sure what you mean by you listen to what they propose? You search what you want, follow other people, listen to playlists you or other people have made.

Unfortunately I have seen OSTs, albums and even a single song in an otherwise fully available album removed from Spotify, but it is indeed very inusual.
