Talk:VOCALOID in other media/@comment-123.136.111.160-20170306172243/@comment-53539-20170416095847

A lot of it has to do with the popularity of Miku purely and she earns them money. To keep earning money, they have to keep promoting her and expanding their marketing reach. This is also why they would do English and Chinese. there is only x ways they can expand her for Japanese.

Every figurine, cameo, etc, is keeping Miku activate. the other Vocaloid companies are not always so unison. Gackpoid, for example, is voiced by Gackt, who is always busy. In fact making a English vocal for him is difficult because it involves getting Gackt to spend possibility up to a week-month in a studio. Its far more expensive then getting Megumi in a studio since he is a higher profiled artist. Internet co is more of a 3rd party distributor like Yamaha, but not quite like them... Since Yamaha isn't always the developers of their vocals while Internet co is.
