Learned the term recently and really enjoy it, subscription fatigue is the feeling we all have had now where we are just over how everything is subscription based.

Which one was the last straw or most annoying/frustrating to you?

iirc a lot of tracks and albums get removed if it's later found out that samples or royalties weren't cleared on the record. For instance Death Grips' "Exmilitary" mixtape was removed a few years ago because a lot of samples on the mixtape weren't cleared with their original creators.

Yeah it’s usually copyright disputes, because some of the tracks have stopped being available in my country for some reason or another. But what if I do enjoy that particular remix and it gets taken down? I have tons of tracks like that. Spotify makes a great case of what happens when you’re not the one in control of your music library, and it won’t completely replace music collection for me.

Yeah IP lawyers ruining my music collection is why I started keeping my music offline for the first time in over a decade.

It's not just copyright issues. When Spotify loses the license to carry the tracks, they're gone.
