Yes I agree with you, I have had some songs I like disappear too. But with a subscription model, I can stop paying them when the value isnt there anymore.

A good example is that I cancelled Amazon prime this year because with add-on items and ineligible items it stopped providing any value over just meeting the minimum order $ for free shipping.

Spotify reached that threshold for me two years ago. I started seeing 1 in every 20 or so liked tracks go away.

You make that sound as if spotify is the problem.

This is about labels and sometimes artist not wanting to have their songs on spotify anymore.

This is about Tidal or whathername wanting more money from a dying market.

It might not be Spotify's fault, but it is certainly their problem. Their business survival depends on being able to fix it before a rival does, because consumers don't want to keep paying for a service that sucks for them, 'because it isn't their fault'.

... they come back after a while in my experience. The licenses for those tracks seem to rotate between services.
