Honestly, in previous years I would have thought it was awesome. But this year, there is really no point since they already aired all of hers on TV anyways. (and in HDTV no less) It's just ridiculous and is indeed not fair. There are actually people who go to A-Nation for other artists. When I went to A-Nation 2007, the seat next to me was open for almost the entire show - then one performer before Otsuka Ai a man finally came and took his seat. After Otsuka, he left and never came back. lol. Point being there are people that are interested in other artists and not just Ayu. With so little of other artists being shown on tv, I would think the better strategy for them would actually be to put more of other artists on the DVD and less of Ayu since everyone that would have bought the DVD for Ayu already got to see everything for free. Stuff like this really does make me think that she has some kind of back room control over how A-Nation goes or something (especially when you hear she does the editing, something I'm sure the other artists don't get to do).
This is more mind boggling than them leaving Namie out of the tv broadcast and the DVD release entirely last year. (Even though she sells the most dvds these days of any of the Avex artists.)

That all comes down to personal preference though. Like you, I felt that many things were boring as well but as I stated in the example above of Otsuka Ai - different people like different types of performances. Not everybody likes the Ayumi style necessarily. But of course most people here will say they found the other performances boring, naturally.
