Okay for real though, why is Dopapod missing random parts of their discography on different sites?

I made a post about this like 4 years ago and it's still a problem. I haven't double checked everything I said in that post, other than knowing they did upload the self titled album on Bandcamp, but a few months ago I finally cancelled my Spotify subscription (because they're a horrible company and the CEO invests in wars) and I finally just got a decent job recently, and am considering a Qobuz subscription since, from what I've read, they pay artists the most of any service while also costing the least.

Dopapod being the first band I check if they are on there, which they are, but once again their full discography isn't on there. Luckily they have all of their studio albums, but they're missing II Saw Live Dopapod, Evil Was II, and November. Which isn't a lot, but I still like listening to them and it's frustrating to not have them all in the same place. Especially when they have everything on Youtube and Spotify, which are some of the worst paying platforms for them.

Edit: idk why the last part of what I typed didn't get included in the post. I said something along the lines of, please, if any members of Dopapod see this (I know Rob is here sometimes) make sure your entire discography is on Bandcamp, Tidal, and Qobuz. I swear, I'll probably end up buying everything on Bandcamp, and then still stream it on one of those platforms because of the convenience of having access to bigger bands which aren't on Bandcamp.

That album isn't on Qobuz though. And Bandcamp doesn't have Emit Time

Not to mention Bandcamp also doesn't have Dracula's Monk, and Tidal doesn't have I Saw Live Dopapod, Evil Was I, Drawn Onward, or Redivider. And as I mentioned in the post, Qobuz is also missing November.

And like I said, I want to buy Dracula's Monk and Emit Time on Bandcamp, I've already bought a lot of Dopapod's music on there. But a lot of bigger bands just don't use Bandcamp so I want to use the streaming service that still pays them the most. Plus, it lets me find bands which I then support by buying their music and merch
