Sadly, that probably won't happen. Miku is the most recognizable face for VOCALOID, whether we want it that way or not. She's the most likely way of people actually learning what VOCALOID is. This is slightly painful to admit, since I am a huge IA nerd and in love with the creativity concept that moves the software into the spotlight as well, but that's something that can't be changed. CFM has had the luck of the draw since her conception, as well as the time to build up her popularity to the level it is right now thanks to the fans and musicians that grew to appreciate what she is to them. To deny that it is not relevant to VOCALOID now would actually be misinformation in itself sadly... I myself just wish they'd do more to highlight the fact that the CFM VOCALOID Crew aren't the only ones one day, and that's more likely to happen rather than the nixing of Miku Worship altogether.

Really, as much as we as fans and VOCALOID users would want to see more news coverage on the actual product, other VOCALOID or concept of VOCALOID and that alone, it can't be explained without using the most noted features that ARE actually face value points that new people see first.

(Which is why I'm also rooting for VocAmerica to be a success as much as it can be.)
