I believe it was mentioned that Kazumi had cast the misconception that it was a legal to use the voicebanks, when it was not. This is as far as I can remember, I'd reccomend contacting Planty himself if you would prefer a more detailed explanation of the mistakes that occured. However, be aware that it was a subject that caused a lot of emotions to run high at the time. To add to this, I merely mentioned Planty because it was the FIRST encounter. It most certainly wasn't the last, the worst account nor were there people not already doing it. I put this one down to "newbie naivety".

Just clearing the situation up about the Plenty bit. He got noticed first because he posted instructions on VO and wrote up about the vocals here. It gives us a chance to point out the illegal nature of the act, its the same reason for the page on Pocaloid. One can't pretend this doesn't go on but one can educate people so they know better... :-/
