Does anyone using Qobuz notice how far out ( not the 60's saying by the way!) that the suggestion for similar albums is?

Sometimes it suggests similar albums, but mainly not!
Just now for instance I was playing a classic 60's album by Classics VI, and it suggested that music by Wet Leg and Belle & Sebastian and The Arctic Monkeys were similar.
About as similar as an armchair and a Dyson vacuum

Hi Craig, I wonder if you can do me a favour?

I posted about only getting 30 second clips from Qobus, is this during the free trial period, before being billed?

The problem I have is I cannot get through to Qobus to ask the question. All I can get are the 'articles' explaining things.
If I try for a message or help it just doesn't work, wondering if it is my browser.
I even tried to close the account but I have never received the email that it says Qobus sends to confirm.

Can you ask if the 30 second restriction is just during the free trial period?
What I need to know is if this is showing another problem.

Thanks

i found this...

Check if the same thing also happens in the Qobuz app. Sometimes an artist or record label doesn't give Qobuz license rights to stream a particular album or track. In those cases, Qobuz can only play 30 second previews. To get the complete content, you must purchase the download (which you can do in the Qobuz app.
