People complaining about losing connections while streaming offline. People complaining about perpetual subscriptions. You know what doesn't have that problem? Owning your music.
When the music is owned by you and on your device then you can play it anywhere, anytime, regardless of network connection and you don't have to keep paying for it in order to continue listening to it.
Owning also allows you to slow down your intake of new music - which is actually a good thing. It takes a while to really get into an album and savor all the details and really get to know the album. And you get to keep that album forever at no additional cost!

That's my $0.02 anyway.
