The time have spent and today solo artists are not so much popular like before but i think she can do well with a best album if avex and Ayu use a good promotion !
Why Namie does well today? She uses the strategy of silent and when she realises something everybody is excited etc...She use the good promotion, look at the painting in Tokyo for bring attention to her ...
I have the feeling that Ayu was just a cash cow for avex and now she is not that big they totaly throw over ! it's sad lol

TBH even though Namie is more popular I've seen Ayu in more places around Tokyo than Namie. Regardless of that Amuro is currently in, while Ayu sadly isn't. There doesn't really have to be a reason. It's the way things are. Considering Amuro is in, people will offer her to do CMs and stuff like that, which means she'll get more chances for some media exposure.
Obviously Ayu still appeals to her fans which is a good thing, but over-exposing her when people are all like "You listen to Ayu? Why? Nobody listens to her anymore..." will hardly do her much good.
Avex is a huge company, as it is with every company, they're trying to make money and you can't really blame them as they aren't a charity organization.
Ayu will either have a hit and come back or not...no promo can really help her much because every Japanese person knows who she is.
