    YouTube's New COPPA Policies

    This is so poorly worded that I'd be surprised if content creators didn't take YT and the FTC to court over it. Besides, aren't under-13s technically banned from YT anyway? Why is YT catering to them?

    VOCALOID Favorite Vocaloid Concept Art/Alternative Designs

    I adore that VY2 design! It matches his original boxart really well. I personally love the concept design of Miku with her hair in a half ponytail wearing a cardigan(?). It's super-cute!

    Other EmVoice

    Not a synth user, but I've been quite enjoying the drama surrounding EmVoice in the schadenfreude sense. It's worthy of an article titled 'How NOT To Create and Promote A Vocal Synthesizer'. :tongue:

    Vocaloid Merchandise News

    I'm always jealous of Hot Topic and the Americans lucky to have a physical store - they do ship internationally, but postage and customs charges for American stuff coming to Britain is obscene, so I never take the risk. I kinda wish Hot Topic would expand a bit more internationally than just...

    Unpopular Opinions

    Follow-on unpopular opinion: I'm disappointed Lucia and Luan never became things, because now the Spanish side of Vocaloid is completely dead. I was super-excited for additional languages in V3, but once the Korean and Spanish sides quickly died off, nothing else came out of language expansion.

    YouTube's new TOS says they can terminate accounts that are not commercially viable

    I saw the Reddit thread about this as well. I personally think it's Google creating a loophole to shut down accounts that have been demonetised for breaking community standards, because there have been multiple cases where monetised channels have not been dealt with properly if they violate the...

    Vocaloid Merchandise News

    Holy shit, Miku at Primark?! I know they've been stocking Dragon Ball Z/Naruto/My Hero Academia shirts for a while now (which I found odd considering most Brits don't know any anime other than Pokemon), but I didn't know Miku was that well known enough in the UK to warrant being featured in...

    Unpopular Opinions

    I was quite surprised to hear how different Meiko and Kaito sounded in tone in V3. (Of course, the V1 and V3 engines process samples very differently to each other, but it was still a bit odd getting used to producers working with a different toned Meiko and Kaito after listening to V1 for so long).

    Vocaloid Merchandise News

    You're better off forking out for either a Nendoroid (which I think are actually around $50 on average in the US) or a full body figure. Not even Funko Pops (something else I hate aesthetically) are that ugly or expensive.
