This is why I always get upset when I find out something has been cracked. It's just so... annoying :( The problem is not the crack itself, but the people who will download it to avoid paying for it. We try our best to make others understand that if you do not finically endorse the sales of vocaloids they will not see more production.  However, no one can force anyone to fork out money for a vocaloid, it often turns out they haven't the money in the first place.  This is why we push UTAU instead.  There is also A/E.  You have alternaties to Vocaloid Pocaloiding, but again... You can't force people to use it.
