Discogs started as an electronic music database, so it's not surprising. I guess we can say that all these crowdsourced music databases have obvious priority or bias, despite they are appeared to, or want to, be a comprehensive one, which isn't very realistic just due to the sheer amount of the music produced. In Discogs' case, even though it gradually expanded to "everything", its strength is still at its core (where it started): electronic, hip-hop, rock, jazz, (in this order, named in the article), but probably not pop. One probably would have much better luck looking for something in one than the other, totally depending on the genre. Like, if I'm looking for game music, I definitely will check VGMDB first. Of course, it's not limited to music either. It can happen in much, much smaller fields. One particular case I want to mention is that there used to be three wikis for a single game, Dota 2, and each have their own strengths (there are still two today!).
