[Ahh, I wasn't sure if I should have started this thread here or in the Commissions area hehe ;;]
So, I've seen a lot of people open for UTAU-related commissions. As well have I seen arguments against them and I'd like to see what a lot of people have to say about it (and I'm a little iffy if certain services would go against its shareware ((freeware)) laws?) Of course, there are certainly many services that are socially unacceptable such as (imo) paying someone to make your UTAU sing.
I'm just going to list a bunch of services I've seen :
-UST's (private and public)
-personal UST tuning
-Oto
-Originals
-Mixing
-Video Making / PV
-Designing / Art
-Voicing
-Translations (kinda)
-MMD models
So what are your opinions about such services both socially viewed and with laws / usage policies?
Just my opinion >>

I think most people are comfortable with art / video commissions since it's like any other art comm and people are normally paid to make videos all the time.
Originals seem to be the same since it's like writing another piece of music for someone, although I see little of that offered so I can't really say. I know some people will write everything out and stuff, but will not do the UTAU part which is fair, imo. =v=
USTs seem to be the most controversial topic I've seen. Lots of people like to say "well, you can get them for free" which is more than true. At the same time, I'd like to say (and let me say, I am not declaring that I am for or against it) you can get art requests sometimes. o 3 o; Also, it's a lot like just paying someone to remaking a piece of music for you. There is, of course, the argument that you don't own the song so you have no right to be profiting off of such materials (unless there is legitimate permission from the song writer.)
It's something I don't think I'd ever plan on getting myself into. = n =;;
The others..I don't have much to say but I'd like to hear from others!! =v=b
