Rare? It’s subjective. Spotify will keep showing tracks in playlists if they aren’t available. I have quite a few with grey/missing tracks. Sometimes they come back. But it’s incredibly annoying to have tracks you’ve played many times suddenly become unplayable. That’s not possible with a CD.

It’s not possible with an MP3, neither. How many MP3s end up on landfills compared to CDs and cassettes?
