Yup, I've been in those situations too, particularly if something WAS on streaming but was pulled for some reason or other. That and costs, sometimes.

I always use streaming as a discovery platform, then buy the stuff on Bandcamp or any sort of independent shop (like the label's distributor, if not the artist/label directly), if available. Everything else - piracy lol. After Qobuz pulled my purchases, there's not really any point in purchasing from stores like them anymore.
