Mainly, yes, but only in principle. That would be a perfect solution if the catalog had everything, but, of course, no catalog can have everything. (Well, it could, but only in an alternate universe.)
I love RadioTunes for background and in-car music, but that's radio - you take what they serve you and the max download speed (for paid subscriptions) is 320 kbps, so the sound is severely compressed. For choose your own and close listening, I thought Tidal might be the answer, but there were too many holes in the catalog and too few were streamed at CD quality and none at HD. And, of course, you had to either have a modestly fast Internet connection or you had to download ahead to avoid those awful cell charges. (Streamed at 1411 kbps, just one album would eat nearly a gigabyte.)

If the catalog's complete (an impossible goal, but most people, I imagine, will be happy with the most popular current stuff) streaming is satisfying, in that it completely frees you from physical media, which, now that we no longer need to be shackled to it, seems terribly old fashioned and klunky.
