I love the music and have exactly 4322 vocaloid songs on my ipod. I think Vocaloid is a digital music making program with digitally synthesized vocals, I've heard of "Miku Miku Dance" and have seen some 3d animations involving vocaloid characters, though I'm unsure how a music making program can have characters, if they're the software's mascots it makes sense. I've seen the live concerts on youtube and let me just say "ZOMFG AMAZING!!!" But under all of the songs I read that they're by different artists, but a lot of different artists usually use the same character, Miku, in the album artwork. They're different artists but they use the same character to represent them, but isn't something as popular as Miku be copywrite protected? So do these digital musicians have to ask the company who owns the Miku name if they can use it? Or do they have to go to the company itself to have their music published?
Vocaloid songs and 3d animations are amazing but I'm still confused about it. I'd really appreciate some clarification because today I'm just bad with google today and not finding useful information. I've read a lot on wikipedia about it but that just raised more questions.
I'm also questioning why in September 2009 Miku figurines were launched out of a rocket (If this actually happened).
Its like when people sell stuff at anime cons. They don't get permission, since its their own work they drew or created. Of course, they can't go and claim the characters as their own...
