Missing spells in Compendium

Hi everybody, there are still several spells missing in the compendium, even from PHB (not to mention add-ons like PotA). I miss  Chromatic Orb Dissonant Whispers Hex Phantasmal Force Evard's Black Tentacles so far. Some other spells' text is a bit cluttered up, e.g. Counterspell. Will the compendium be updated some time?

Only items released by WotC through the Open Gaming License are available in the compendium. There are quite a lot of items this does not cover from the Players Handbook. 
Yep what Loren said, OGL stuff is all you have available in the Compendium (Not including add-ons such as Volos etc) and basically covers the same info as the 5e starter set. the PHB is a different thing all to its own, so the Compendium is up to date as it will ever be. In future there may be the option to buy a roll20 version of the PHB which will fill out the compendium with the additions or and changes there-in. though I'm not sure this has been confirmed or denied as a future addition.

Note: the Compendium will be updated if WotC ever releases more content to the SRD. In the meantime, if the Counterspell entry has some problems, please post in the Character Sheets and Compendium forum. The devs are pretty good about fixing that sort of problem.

This likely shouldn't be a huge consideration once their new compendium system drops and we're able to purchase the PHB. Not that it will help players, unless they Too buy the PHB.

It'll be a shitty thing if every person has to buy their own PHB copy unlike other vtt's that are based on the GM's level of subscription.
I'm pretty sure that this is just a mistake by WotC that these few spells are not under license. Why should they be excluded while the rest of the PHB is not. Nevertheless: thnaks for the quick replys! I help myself with a char sheet containing nothing else then the spells I need and call them from there. Cumbersome but it works. I never would buy a PHB (probably for 50 bucks) for that.
