Qobuz

It is special with Roon because they don’t use the Qobuz or Tidal programming API that taps “live” into the streaming service. Instead they receive a full database dump on a schedule, because this seems necessary for performance with all the things Roon does. Therefore new releases can only become available when the next database dump is finished.

Happens with Roon when the title itself drops late and doesn’t make into their database delivery to Roon. As what’s been said above, Roon works very differently with it’s services compared to the others , this allows the level of integration they pride themselves on,allowing adding tags and extra metadata, the high level of organisation to streaming music as it where your own and basically treating your Qobuz albums like they are local files. This comes with a trade-off that they need regular database updates and if Qobuz or Tidal don’t add those releases to this then it’s a wait until the next one.

As for Naim, the services do have limitations of what they offer to partners via the API, so not everything is always available in the sections, but searching for it will reveal it. An example of this is there new weekly playlist. This is only available via their app currently. You can get around this by saving it out as a playlist it will then show up under your normal Qobuz favourite playlists.
