Trust me since you even mentioned NND and Pocaloid in the same sentance; you don't want to mix Pocaloid with the Japanese fandom. I've seen what the Japanese fans do to people sometimes they find out have Pocaloid, not only do you get flamed, their quiet crafty at alerting legal copyright holders to what else you've got.

Plus, youtube is still a form of publishing which is still a form of legal agreement breakage. You can make monyey from youtube and copyright license holders can still have your work removed and your account closed.

Even here on the wikia we have a Blacklist of users who we can't link to as a show of support and repsect for studios and Producers alike. Trust me, finding out a producer has Pocaloid after I've linked to their work, is a sure way to make the wikia editors pissed. We don't want nor like it and it goes against the wikia policies set by the greater wikia system staff.

Bottom line is you have three legal paths in this fandom;
 * Own Vocaloid
 * Use UTAU
 * Or support the producers who do use them

Even if you do use Pocaloid; don't upload the material and keep it to yourself. In some countries the law can't get you for pocession of illegal software, but they can get you for spread it or the productions made with it. :-/
