OMG, thank you so much for posting that. I was seriously freaked out to think that Ayu could have made *more* money in 2003 with "&", "Forgiveness", "Now Way to Say", and "Memorial Address", then she did this year. Plus, in 2003 she only put on one concert tour, where as in 2004 she put on two. I read some where that Avex generally looses more money with her concert tours then it gains (but that might have been a mistaken article)

*phew* With how incredibly GOOD "My Story" was compared to "Memorial Address" over all, I was horrified to think that she made at least a million dollars more with the latter.

Oh, and why has Ayu's profit decreased so greatly since 2001? Is it since that was her hay-day? Or has the world's economy drop effected even her?
