The Grammy awards for music are the same thing. Members aren't required to listen to the nominated albums, and every member gets to vote in every category. I had a friend who was a Recording Academy member as a classical musician. He thought it was strange that they asked him to vote for the best hip-hop album since he doesn't listen to hip-hop at all. So for many of the categories that are a little more niche, it basically turns into a popularity contest, rather than the opinion of true experts.
