Yeah, and albums suddenly disappearing because the licenses ran out. Or, even worst: Albums being incomplete because certains track "aren't available".
I don't know. I use Spotify as a radio replacement, but albums I like I try to buy as FLAC files. If they are lost, it's my own fault.
Until they aren't. Convenience, DRM and collective inertia may well lead to disappearance of media delivered in open formats. Not tomorrow, not next year, but in 10 years? I am not so sure, unless a dedicated minority keeps pushing for it. But then, what happens when will come of age the generation that grew considering normal to only stream and buy a temporary license for media and books?
