yep, I agree that there is a lot of copyright issues exist when you using vocaloid, many limitation exist even with legit version (i had read official Licence Agreement), and it's good that Vocaloid fandom supporting free UTAU (maybe because of a lot copyright issues in vocaloid things). But even free MMD was highly trolled when creators of models starting wars against people who used their models, though the idea of MMD was "a free software"and the author of that software didn't expect such things will happen. I hope UTAU will not be killed in similar situations. I'm sure that people who using illegal vocaloid knows that this is not legal thing, they know the risk, they can estimate situation depends on the local law, and they don't searching support from you, from Yamaha, or from local government (maybe they don't know about all issues, but overall - they understand main point)

Some people choosing support-methods for Vocaloid also depends on own situations, and legit ways are not always possible for them. And what's more interesting - some people buying legit libraries but using illegal version because of tehcnical issues with legit Vocaloid))) They're saying: "we pay money, so we already support vocaloid in legit way, but we want to use illegal versions at the same time (because of...a lot of reasons)". As i said: that's more complicated to understand from all points of view. In my opinion, copyright issues is too heavy, too many limitations, and maybe should be discussed on higher level (copyright laws are far from ideal). I understand your point: lobbying of current law and Yamaha - it's easy point to promote, everything writen on paper. My point is to lobbying users interests in such questions - it's hard point, people have different interests, different methods, different points of view, but it helps to analyse situation in vocaloid fandom, not so many people wants to think why people do such crimes, and i'am sure that answer is not "because they are bad and like to do that"
