Internet co has no plans for a V5 but are understood to not be out of Vocaloid, they just are taking a step back for unknown reasons.

Since V3 Noboru had a hand in the behind the scenes part of Vocaloid. V4's new recording style was headed by them. Their role is quite interesting indeed. Its even hinted in the recent Megpoid Anniversaries their definitely not done with her yet. This is the recording style they were talking about, a large portion of the Japanese Vocaloids that came with V4 were recorded with it including Unity-chan, Una, Nemu and Lumi.

PowerFX have been focusing on Soundation since 2012, I shared an e-mail with some others in private recently that pushed the date back to 2012 that they started to focus on it. Soundation did better then Yohioloid profit wise.
