There can be *some* good from illegal versions, so while their "evil" their not the most evil thing around. Unfortunately the bad outweighs the good. :-/

Plus a lot of the time (maybe "most") the "producers" who use it because they can't afford it aren't ready to become producers in the first place... They've often can't sustain any possible carer as a music producer nor afford the music lessons to back up the Vocaloid usage because they can't afford that either.

To be honest its only the ones who can afford but won't buy Vocaloid that are the concern. And people who don't understand that publishing anything with illegal versions is just as wrong as downloading Vocaloid illegally. Because copyright law with Vocaloid doesn't just stop with the software alone.

Keep it to private use if you must do it.
