Are you sure ayu doesn't get a lot of money for her sales  RIAA practice is 16.7% of gross sales and then there is contractual cut of net profit and upfront payment on contract. Let's say RIAJ is 10% as a conservative estimate, if ayu sells only 500k of CD+DVD, she's gonna get 0.1 x 4571 x 500k and that's excluding CD only, net profits blah blah. Believe me, she's rich. And she doesn't have to share it like KATTUN, arashi and l'arc en ciel. Why do you think ayu and koda kumi are sort of always listed as the highest earning singers... And yeah, let's enjoy the 10th anniversary with her! |
I thought I saw people explain that Avex gets most of the profits and Ayu get's a fixed sum based on a contract. Maybe I'm mistaken. But I didn't mean to say she isn't rich.
Glad to see the drop wasn't as tremendeous this time lol Although this seems to be her usual pattern so I'm not worried
