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 😏)
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.

My music taste is always changing. I like listening to new (to me) music, not the same albums over and over. I much prefer spotify over buying albums
You can do it without Spotify as well.
My point is, using downloaded album, you are sure to retreive what you listened X years ago.

I mean they could have some arrists they don’t want to be on spotify. It already happened.
Don’t think that list is totally accurate. Listening to Norwegian Wood as I type this.
Bandcamp is the answer.
You can still buy music digitally these days
