Hm, I agree with both of you. Meiko is hard to use and as you say not targeted at the pop-otaku audience, which probably lead to her lack of popularity. But I definitiely support Angel's statement on the other Vocaloids. The problem is even worse with them, although Meiko has the advantage of a long time since release. I hope Mew's different style doesn't hamper any progress in popularity, that would be rediculous. D:

I have no figures, I would be interested to know if the popularity of Vocaloids was evening? Or beginning to warm to newer releases? I know Gumi is catching up. I don't think all Vocaloids should be valued equally obviously, they are of different qualities, different ratios between amounts of strenghts and weaknesses, and, of course, technology advances. But I am curious as to whether bias is fading. I know fandom is never going to turn into a critical thinking class though.
