I don't think its safe to compare any Vocaloid outside of the popular 9 Vocaloids with anyone inside the popular 9... Because there in a different league entirely. :-/

Just sayin'.

Some notes;
 * if a Vocaloid sells only 500 units and each producr makes 10 songs, then the Vocaloids gets 5,000+ songs appear. In this case, they appear popular -  but their still a failure.  For Vocaloids 1,000 unit is suppose to be the number any synthier must reach to be called "success".
 * fans who can buy or work with the software might produce pictures, so if a Vocaloid has sold 500 units but has 6,000 artwork, this again doesn't help since their not buying software deespite promoting it.
 * Its the same for fanfiction.
 * Also consider there may be about a hundre illegal copies or so out there, so out of those 5,000 songs I mentions early, if just 10% were with illegal versions, this puts the number from 500 units to 450 units.... Or something like that, I'm too tired to pull a calculator out and do maths on that one. =_=

Really, whiler the two do indeed often led from one to the other, with Vocaloids its not something you can take lightly. For Engloids, whose products were popular within their markets, yet might often have more sales then they do artwork, this again is a subject of questioning if that popularity really will impact the Vocaloid.
