Also, now her song "Secret" is being featured in a new film. =)

I'm also pretty sure that rainy day and Startin' were featured on some video game. Heaven --- Shinobi movie. Born to Be --- winter olympics. And fated --- Kaidan... So besides the heavy promotion she also has songs featuring a movie etc once in a while even now.

I'd just guess that her sales ain't so good because people download lots of music illegally more now and don't really care to buy so much CDs and such.
Her musical style also has changed quite a bit so even if that makes some new fans, old fans who in example liked her LOVEppears and I am... songs won't all like GUILTY and Secret.
And also since she's such a big star and shown everywhere it can get tiring and people start listening to less famous "rising" stars with a fresh style of music.
I.e. I don't really like any "big"
(pop) stars around here in my country.
