I beg to differ with many of these comments. Sure, Miku has been very, very slowly loosing popularity, but Crypton has the franchise wrapped around their finger. Miku's been on top since this entire fandom was created around her, thus having the greatest footing. IA has had a great start and is doing very well, but I doubt she'll ever really surpass Miku. She might be a highlight of the Vocaloid 3 generation, the star of a new generation, but she will never knock Miku off of her throne. In other words, Miku is to Vocaloid as Mario is to Nintendo; they represent each and are (basically) the mascots. IA is doing fabulous and has been recieving a lot of attention, but no one knows if Crypton will update Miku's bank. (I am aware they said that they wouldn't, but who honestly knows exactly what they're up to at this point with all of these new Appends and English banks.) I love IA, but if you seriously think that she will ever reach Miku's level on a world-wide scale you don't know what you're talking about.
