Music can be applied to many things such as film, dance, atmosphere, etc as well as just for listening to. Also it's more likely that people will listen to songs on repeat whereas it's not as popular to watch dance/films on repeat (such as Utaite Nano's "Be Free With Music")

ANYWAY

Looking up the dance styles, I strongly feel we should have only these 3 categories to keep things simple and clean:

Contemporary/Traditional

Street/Electronic/Disco

Kawaii/Idol/Anime

A sexy style does not exist as a separate category. Instead, it can be separated into either Contemporary or Street or Idol, whichever is more fitting. For example, Killer Lady (Miume, 217, Katoh, I forgot the other girl's name please forgive me) and Pomp and Circumstance / Ifudodo choreos would be Street. Danceroid and Romeo and Cinderella (Prince, Miume) would be considered Contemporary. Musumen's Koshitantan would be Idol. Of course, this means that many popular odorites (such as Miume, K'suke, Niina, ARSMAGNA, Aoi, Ririri, ATY) would be in every category. However, many others would not still, such as Melochin (unless he also does Contemporary without me knowing), Tadanon, Nyantaro, RAB, Kimagure Prince, SLH, ShokupanMen, Maron. And there are still some who only do one style such as Apricot and Bookie.

(Correct me if I'm wrong about any of these, I may have forgotten a few things about each dancer)
