When using enhanced cover art uploads userscript, the images from Discogs are in low quality, the same when I copy image’s address from Discogs website.
The same case is with VGMdb, but after making an account, the script got images in original quality.

Discogs sadly removed the workaround to access high quality art from their database, a few years ago. I’m not sure if they even store the high quality art anymore, or just downscale everything to 600px and throw away the rest.
Friends don’t let friends upload high resolution scans to Discogs…

The kind of inertia it takes to maintain (and justify) such a system even in 2025 must be something else, among other retrograde elements of the site in question.
There really should be a way to get the people who have legible scans to upload them over here so that the material can actually be verified.
