^ I had edited my post before you posted to say "most." Because of course even her earliest singles sold less than the ones today.

Sunset also did great! It would have get #1 weekly if Sunrise wasn't there
From what I can see, Exile got #1 and #2 in the ビデオクリップランキング and Ayu got the 着信ムービーランキング. I'm not sure what exactly the difference is between the two though - although I think the former is the full pv and the later just a clip. The chart that currently has Ayu and Exile on it together(incoming movie chart), is not Exile's first week of release so its difficult to say exactly where Ayu ranks in comparison. (in its first week of release it was #1 and #1 for the month) I actually don't like Exile at all though, so it would be fine if Ayu beats them.

I mean that's what I'm assuming. (the fans mainly buying cd+dvd) A few years ago I think it would be legitimate to say that people would buy it just for her PVs. But lets face it, most of her PVs lately aren't that great. And then especially considering that they always show up on the album cd+dvd later anyways.
