Library disappointment?

Hello, I’ve had Spotify for a long while and have built up some good playlists, one in particular has about 100 tracks in the electronic and ambiance genre.  Today I tried Qobuz for better quality, and when I imported my playlists, I got a crazy low import percentage.  In the case of my 100 song playlist, just 60 tracks came over, and it was similar with a couple other playlists.  Is this just the electronic genre, or will I have better luck with Tidal?  For the type of music I like, this blows.  Other thing I found odd, when a track or playlist would end, Qobuz would play another song completely random from another genre.  In this case from Foofighters to classical violin.  Spotify does a great job at suggesting similar music, is this just the experience, or what am I missing?

Can't you just create a new playlist from Qobuz?

Maybe I need another cup too, but I don't know how you would import playlist from somewhere else onto a platform like Qobuz or Tidal anyways. I thought that would be the domain of your server. If I had any music that Qobuz doesn't offer I would think it would have to be stored on a server or a streamer with storage abilities like the Bluesound Vault. I could be totally wrong.

Qobuz is a much newer service if I understand correctly. There were concerns when they started about limited choices but as time's passed that has been allayed. There's no reason to doubt more will be added. My questions to Qobuz were quickly answered concerning the ability to arrange artist albums by chronological order. Perhaps people can send in their recommendations for artist.

Yes. I think! Computers nor people think alike! I did do Tidal for a while, but I certainly didn't think it was any better sounding, quite the opposite.
