But I admittedly haven't seen much of that recently.

In all honesty, though... Some people just don't have the disposable income to buy albums and whatnot. :/ In my opinion, you're a fan regardless of whether you buy Ayu's stuff or not.

Me, I prefer to buy Ayu's albums and support her. However, I am guilty of downloading her singles and not buying them. I see no reason to buy a single featuring two songs that will be on the full album I'll buy in a few months time. I do, however, buy singles that are not on her albums (A Song is born with KEIKO, Dream ON).
