Yes, I mostly buy from Qobuz and Bandcamp these days, and they've been solid so far. But I don't trust keeping my files in the cloud (aka some else's server), I buy DRM-free, keep copies locally, and keep them backed up.

Exactly, it's not news. If you buy DRM-encoded media you don't own it. You are just leasing it on terms decided by the seller, which are subject to change at their whim.

Buy DRM-free or physical media and make your own copy.
