Just gonna jump in and say that taste is irrelevant here. The doujin music, touhou, tales of and chiptunes are pretty much always VGM or VGM-related. You can't use "I don't like musically" as an argument, adding anime to VGMdb is a major step because it's not at all VGM. It may share some artists in common but it's a different kind of music and that's why people react.

Personally I like the thought of having VGMdb solely focused on VGM since I believe that'll make it more accurate and a really credible source for VGM. We don't have the anime community to support the addition of anime just yet (but I think we will) and personally I'd like to see an implementation that doesn't clash with what VGMdb is. I'll leave that to brighter minds though, some good ideas are here already.
