I don't even know how.

But I wish people would stop cracking VOCALOIDs I mean it's really dumb

And if people were being impatien for them...they're less than two weeks away. PEOPLE CAN WAIT.

(WTH, wikia, now I can't reply now unless I quote a post?! I'm hoping they fix these issues ASAP...)

It's been known since yesterday, but yeah, sad indeed. Unfortunately as long as there are people who feel strongly about fighting back against anything and everything in life that comes with a price tag, there will always be software pirates... l(est big money and lawmakers get their way and enforces laws to have the fingers of offenders broken for each offense... God forbid that'd ever happen.) It's annoying and disappointing, though, because it's something that's a real scarlet letter on the non-Japanese part of the fandom, and it's pretty bad when other people are at least attempting to go about doing the right thing.

(And before anyone pulls the "people like to try it before they buy it", nah... with recent demos including the Tiny VOCALOID3 Editor, it feels less like a legitimate excuse as time goes on. It may not be the full version, but it at least gives you what the Vocaloid and the editor can do in a simpler format. I'm at the point now I'm just not buying that line anymore...)
