Perhaps the popularity of solo singers is declining but Ayumi still remains at the top of the solo singers. So i dont think Ayumi's time is coming to an end.
EDIT: just thinking quickly wouldn't it be good if Oricon made a chart for solo singers and a chart for groups? I think that would be more fair ANyone else agree? 0_o

Oh god no! Lol. That would be unfair to those who managed to beat the others and unfair to those in the past, who didn't have such luxuries. Besides, they can't go around changing the charts every single time the music trends change. In the 90s you had this strong Band Boom going on and rock bands were definitely the most popular. (The era of B'z, L'Arc~en~Ciel, Glay, Mr. Children etc.) After that, solo singers. Now, boybands. Imagine them changing the charts every single time!
