Spotify lacks large portions of influential artist output. Last time I used it they didn't have three albums in a row I was looking for. I uninstalled it in a fit of pique. I would never pay money for a service that doesn't carry albums I want to hear when they are available digitally from Amazon.

I've honestly never encountered it, though I've heard it happens. I'm sure if I was having issues finding the music I wanted to listen to I'd be pretty quick to ditch it.

Mind telling me who they didn't have?
