Not only avex doing that. B'z company, the Johnnys', Mr. Chlidren's company, etc. are doing the same thing. I dun think B'z can maintain the longest streak if their company doesn't choose safe weeks for them. Groups like AKB48 can totally blow the streak apart.

So, ayu streak will keep on until one day when a new artist kills it off (SCS is a good example).
