Ayu is just enjoying her 10th anniversary =/

I was wondering about that. Truehappiness posted that she was supposed to perform on music station and fighter and in the end she didn't, not even on those conventional promotion platforms. If i were her, i would perform on 10 different shows and sing 10 single songs, 1 from each album lol...
Are you sure ayu doesn't get a lot of money for her sales

RIAA practice is 16.7% of gross sales and then there is contractual cut of net profit and upfront payment on contract. Let's say RIAJ is 10% as a conservative estimate, if ayu sells
only 500k of CD+DVD, she's gonna get 0.1 x 4571 x 500k and that's excluding CD only, net profits blah blah. Believe me, she's rich. And she doesn't have to share it like KATTUN, arashi and l'arc en ciel. Why do you think ayu and koda kumi are sort of always listed as the highest earning singers... And yeah, let's enjoy the 10th anniversary with her!
