I started playing Henry Threadgill's recent album Listen Ship and the track transitions seemed completely off after the first so I pulled up the album and found this

All but the first and last track have a yellow badge "SAMPLE" and cut off after 30 seconds.

What's going on? Presumably I am not entitled to listen to the whole album on Qobuz. But how am I supposed to fix that? I can't see an option to buy the album or change my Qobuz sub so that I can play it all. Why would Qobuz provide product samples to things it won't sell me?
 
Maybe it’s not completely released yet? The visible tracks might be previews.
