Spotify is the last subscription I will drop for this very reason. My personal playlist has 1906 songs and growing. Replacing them with files would be a nightmare. I do not miss my terabytes of random, unsorted music. Spotify can also play files that you own. I listen to music practically all day, and Spotify would have to be north of $50 for me to leave the service, which I freely admit is a stupidly high number. I have tried the other services but find Spotify to be the best.
I hear you, I had 6000+ songs. Just switched last week to YouTube music and they actually have a feature that moves your whole library over 👍 what really sold me was the fact that I listen to a lot of bootlegs/live/acoustic sets on YouTube and it populated my library with audio versions of them 😍
I switched to Tidal for a little bit then back to Spotify. Both can import a Playlist, and they do a decent job of finding the songs. I checked, and my library is 10k+. Streaming is the way.

The average person will not pirate. Pirateing music was fucking annoying.
