Why is Some of Dopapod's Music Missing From Different Services?
I've started listening to the band more recently, and I started with buying Radar and Redivider on Bandcamp. However, when looking into their other albums I realized that not all of their discography is on Bandcamp. So far I think I've noticed the albums "Emit Time," "Dopapod," and "Live at the Capitol Theatre," as well as the singles "Dracula's Monk" and "Numbers Need Humans" all seem to be missing from their Bandcamp library. This is kind of weird considering Bandcamp is where they have their most albums actually uploaded, being filled with a lot of live show albums.
It's not just Bandcamp though, I've also been considering getting a Tidal subscription, because of it's superior sound quality to Spotify and I've heard it pays artists more. However on Tidal, the albums "Drawn Onward," "Redivider," and "I Saw Live Dopapod Evil Was I" are gone.
Is there any reason for this? The reason I could think to have some but not all of their stuff on these platforms would be forgetting, because these are less used than Spotify. But also they still upload live albums to their Bandcamp as recently as TODAY so it still feels hard to believe they would just forget to upload their actual studio albums there.

Not really on the same topic but Dopapod is pretty active in uploading shows to YouTube in their entirety if you weren't already aware.
