Do people really pay for this?
I pay for YouTube Music and premium gets thrown in for free. Why? It’s mostly momentum.
I used Groove back when that was a thing, and when it folded I could migrate my playlists to YouTube so it was easy and than $10 a month. Now it’s $30 but it’s still like buying a cd a month. I am slowly de-googling and some month will stop using the service. It just hasn’t been a top priority.
If you did this, you’d have like 20 CD’s by the end of the year (way more id you can find used ones) that you completely own and no one can pull the license for later.
Ripping them is easy and allows you to play them anywhere, even without internet.

20 cds that don’t exist that I can’t buy and the artists don’t make. Would require me to lug around a cd binder again and jury rig a CD player in my car. Install a CD player in my pc. Etc.
CDs are a fucking dog shir medium anyways prone to getting fucked up and broke and scratched.
The correct fix it actual fucking digital files with no drm. If you have to go back to physical media as your argument then get a fucking idiot. The only reason to get physical media is because you personally enjoy it. But objectively it’s a fucking absolute fucking nightmare to deal with and a pain in the ass to use.
