And all the Ku fans seem to be saying that it's doing really well digitally yet somehow no one ever bothers posting the source nor any proof of that. I am not saying it's doing bad digitally but I don't really believe it's doing that great. I am not dissing her as I listen to her a lot myself, it's just that some people can't seem to accept the fact that she is way past her prime and that her sales are and will keep declining.

Well put.
As for her declining sales, I don;t think her sales will keep declining starting now. It is up to Kuu herself. But honestly, lately, I feel like Kuu isn;t herself anymore. I love old Kuu when she still has her character. Nowadays, probably because of this year scandal, she's like 'afraid' to show her true nature. She's like playing it safe and look how people will react. Taboo had a great potential, she just didn't use it well. And TABOO sold well too, but I believe if only she did put herself more into it, Taboo would sell more than that.
As for her losing popularity, I think it might be true. Since that scandal, she was losing a great deal of her fan base. The older women who used to be her fans might already dissed her now. And usually that older women are the ones with money as they are working adults and have better financial.
Whatever it is that makes her SWM single sold badly, I don;t think this will mark her point of declining in sales or popularity. 55K isn;t bad, that;s what I know. (But gotta admit, at her caliber 55k is bad^^)
edit:
And Yes... I do hope Ayu will get steady sales with more than 2k index next week. But as someone said before (I forget who). It is highly likely that AYu won't beat Kuu's SWM. But another mirrocle would be awesome^^
