Music composition

Internet started their Vocaloid development with the first Vocaloid 2 singing synthesizer Gackpoid on July 31, 2008, whose voice was provided by Japanese international singer Gackt. Gackpoid includes OPUS Express for mixing vocal parts with accompaniment or phoneme data.

The second product, Megpoid, was released on June 25, 2009, and is voiced by Megumi Nakajima. Due to the success of Crypton Future Media's "Append" series, Internet announced they will be working on an updated version of Megpoid called Megpoid Extend in 2011.

Yamaha's first Vocaloid called Lily was later sold via Internet's website. Internet also released Gachapoid based on the voice of Gachapin, a popular Japanese television character. Gackpoid, Megpoid and Lily would also be released in Taiwan.
