In my opinion scans have a special role, as their primary function is to:
(a) provide album metadata
(b) verify existing metadata
If some 300dpi scans already accurately do this (where accurately means that I don't have to guess kanji because of the lack of resolution), then there is no need to go for 600dpi or even 1200dpi.
I'm totally with Myrkul here. Consistency over anything.
Also I want to point out, as it was discussed in some older thread, that hosting scans is potentially legally problematic. So with that in mind, we should try not to overdo it. VGMdb should remain a database, and not some scan hoster.
