Yep, if you buy the music you actually like, yeah that CD you bought at FYE in 2013 was $12, but that's $12 literally 10 years ago, water under the bridge, and you can still use it however you want to use it.
Meawhile Deezer nuts is making you pay for a CD-worth of content every month. That's 12 CDs a year.
Now That's What I Call a LOT of Music.
This is my main approach to media. Instead of spending money every month on streaming services, I buy the media I care about. If I have to buy it on Amazon, then I pirate my own copy.
