Funny enough, people stopped caring about him for a long time until V2 was officially retired recently. Now he is retired they care more about him.

Yohioloid, Yuu, Arsloid and others also can replace him and are often higher quality. You can argue Len V4x can too, but Len's vocal is a female voicetype not male so... This is debatable. You also have Iroha who counts as the same voice type.

As I said, there are several English vocaloid who we don't have replacements for and that is more worrying, then Piko whose been replaced by several vocaloids. Plus "males don't do well in Japan", and the notion that just because they update him doesn't mean he will sell as most who want the updates are willing to actually buy him.
