Bandcamp does this too, which surprises me. Individual record labels can yank releases whenever, and bandcamp purges it so thoroughly I'd think they were trying to convince me I never bought it in the first place. Not in my collection, not in my purchase history, etc. They don't mention this happening on their "where did my music go FAQ" page. I only confirmed it by searching my email history to find the receipt.
Sure, there's stolen music, but some record labels just delete and recreate the product pages for no reason (or maybe to prevent purchasing individual tracks? not sure why that would require a replacement).
There's another option, to mark a release as private, where purchasers can still view/download their music.
