Yea, but you won't get a dollar for the sale of a CD single.
For an album, perhaps.
I once read that singers usually get around 80cents for each sale of an album.
Of course, Ayu is a well established artist, who writes her own lyrics, and went through a phase of composing her own music too, so she would get more than this.
Ayu tours every year, so that's where the bulk of her income will come from.
Of course, it would be silly to think she still has every penny she has earned, lol. I bet she spends it as quickly as it comes in... I know I would!
