I agree on that partly. But in reality, TV is still the media with highest penetration and may push influence. While probably younger people relies more on the Internet, Promotion on TV do get the word out so people will be curious enough (or maybe got sick & tired enough) to check out that artist's Youtube pages etc. And of course, TV promotion doesn't only mean TV performances (esp just 1 midnight performance), but also things like endorsements in drama Theme Songs, starring in commercials, getting music videos out, etc. If TV is no longer working, then no celebs would be still trying to get on TV.
Nonetheless, the best promotion is always a 360 where you go all out to TV, Internet and printed media... and somehow I think Avex is not investing that kind of promotion on Ayu anymore
How can DCT suddenly get 10,000 copies sold
!! oh well... that's something Avex should learn next time
