I always stay on the opposite sides, friend. That's how the world are built. Sorry.

"You're presuming things are from multiple sources, just imagine that refer to a sound of someone shouting to another person on the other side of a canyon. Miku is the sound the person first makes, the Kagamines are the sound as it bounces and echoes around the canyon, while Luka represents the end of the sound after it travels. Thats what they mean; sound from start to finish, from speaker to listener."

maybe they mean "travelling around the world"? Then it must stop somewhere. and, of course CFM is a too small company to accomodate all the hype that was generated around Miku V2 package.(Only this one, because it practically scribed the statement: Vocaloid=Anime mascot+"Cuuute" voice)

===

"Truth be told, the voice of Miku wasn't that of a 16 year old girl, nor the Kagamine's 14 year olds... You need to separate avatar from voice here, their all voice actors who were young adults/adults, so all are the voices of that. "

Of course i keep them separate.(im even do not saw photos of the actual providers of the theese voices you mentioned, maybe Asami, but i dont remember now how she looks in real world ) BUT, i do not separate the written avatar from the intended voice for it(of course yoy need to reverse them here.). Its a matter of sinchronization between them. In Miku's case, The Asami(im really admit her bravery for stepping into this moot project with us and done so much for it. *redface* ) was able to keep sounding like a 16-years girl, but as every human out here, she's matured/aged, so her voice are done the same thing too.(V3 English, maybe appends too) Again, im comparing the official boxart image representation(you called this an "avatar" for the voice i guess) with the voice that contained in the package.(and Miku's V3 English and Standard V3 version are different packages for me, so i judge them only with their own boxart representations available for each of them separately)

"A lot can change over the course of time. "

It's already changed out there. The first plan was short(they didnt expected much luck in it, already writing the "plan B"(projrct if...) on a paper.) Yhen the Miku hype. At some point i guess they maybe wanted to make some type of a small band, but got crushed by the frequent engine updates(Thanks, yamaha, you was very helpful here) and stuck in a "update" cycle for the other vb's here... My guess, is that IF they(i mean CFM's) don plan to expand theyr company, they better assemble some sort of a small band here, and focus solely only on them. They already have the widest-known vb out there,(yeah, selfish claim, it was for Miku) and can ease off the pace to concentrate on quality and complexity of each other, showig the other studios "How it meant to be done" here.

"Edit: Also, lets just forget Kaiton and Meiko, their a different product to the CV series. And discount SEGA since they are just creating a game for someone else's property, they've done this for lots of things over the years. Just focus on the CFM side and nothing else. "

Because they are not part of the"CV" series, didnt mean that they are was only been distributed by CFM back in a day. They failed, at some point, yes, but(i hope) they leaned their lesson's here. As for "sega" part, its matter of corporate relations, when the time has got us to point "is the vocaloid are profitable enough to make its living?" yamaha just has got to make somthig as a "last try" i guess...they told CFM to make some vb's, and later suggested(or choosed for them, i dont know) sega as a first(and i guess main) dev, for the VG market. The price of a fail would be not-so-high, as at least they can negotiate this one. They know, how was sega would do the VG version of Miku, so they have some faith in it. It was worked excellent back then.Think about if they choosed another dev out there...(Stubborn and greedy Nintendo(Remember how's PlayStation was born?) or just greedy(everythig has a price on it) Microsoft or EA or other western devs) And how it would affect the situation here.

Having different sources can give ability to see the same object from different angles, it never hurted anyone. Following different dogma's is not bad too, just do not to be pretend that "ultimate authority". It always drive pepole to hell.
