Yeah most people don’t care to maintain a local music library. It’s a lot of work and compared to streaming services that do it for you this offers no real benefit. If you listen to lots of new/different music all the time, streaming is actually far cheaper.
“It is a lot of work”? I don’t know, for me it always seemed far more convenient than being locked to a single service, single player app and following restrictions.
There are three morbillion songs and I have no idea which ones I like. Streaming platforms became popular for a reason

It’s cheaper because the band doesn’t get paid as much. The streaming service keeps most of the meager pay.
People make up for it by buying merch or going to shows. Margins on those things are much better for the artists.
In every service I know of, the platform takes a minority of revenue

Yeah this is fucking peak internet snobbery. “Just spend thousands dollars on music” ok.
