Hm, I gotta side with Angel Emfrbl  on how the English Vocaloid fandom treats English Vocaloids. And with many on VO and Twitter stating that they will never buy another PFX product... as if they bought them in the first place, wow. We will be losing ONE of the few English Vocaloid companies in the market.

You're on fire kid.

While I agree that side stepping the creator of the voicebank was rude, I can see a business standpoint. A lot of these studios can't survive on "Neat a new Vocaloid" fandom for longevity. Avanna proved that if you advertise to the right people they will be curious. This is why I want Vocaloid to be mainstream, this is why I want Yamaha's marketing methods with Vocaloid to succeed. It will encourage advertisement and improvement for the technology. Having this be some kind of "Fan exclusive" hobby isn't whats best for it, maybe it was during the V2 era but we gotta move on.
