Ummmmm....has anyone ever taken into account that this is a Chinese writer just trying to write an article to make his living? He is not the voice of AVEX, he's just writing about the situation from his own analyzation of affairs in Japan. It is his opinion. That's it, period.

Oh but wait, BoA FRIGGEN SUXXORS!!!1111!1!!1! AYU ROXORS MAH B0X0RZ!!!

It seems all the BoA hate appeared after that news statement issued by AVEX that they were going to start heavily promoting BoA as opposed to Ayu.

When they'er talking about sales, if that artist is not breaking records every new album/single, it's called "declining". Since BoA's sales are on the rise, people think that she's going to shoot up to the stars, plain and simple. Memorial Address sold 1 mil, yet other albums have sold more than that in the past, so, people say that she's "declining". As thus, it only seems natural from a business perspective that one pushes for the expanding and new market as opposed to the old, still profitable, yet not making as much money market. I don't know any way to lay it plainer than that.

Please don't start the whole BoA = Britney thing again. I can point out more similarities between Ayu and Britney than BoA and Britney, yet I still don't say that they're alike. If you must, at least try to have a decent backup statement to what you're saying.
