She needs more HAL ( not only in her winter ballads ), the best Arrangements were done by them ( all her great Rocksongs like 1LOVE, Because of You, is this LOVE?, GAME, talikin’ to myself, Rule and her great cute Songs like ANGELS SONG, replace, HONEY and Summersongs like fairyland, BLUE BIRD, INSPIRE, glitter were done by them! )
All the Songs I love the most from her...
I couldn't disagree more about HAL. I wouldn't mind if she never had a song arranged by them again. In my opinion, THEY are the ones who make same-sounding songs, not who she's using now like Yuta Nakano who is very versatile and can make things sound different and unique (just imagine if Sexy little things was arranged by HAL, ew.)

I know, many people think this way about HAL, but for me personally her HAL Songs are my favorites and I don't think that they sound all the same ( except their Winter Ballads and Interluds )
I really think their rocksongs and Summersongs have unique arrangements which are more interesting than CMJK's
Yuta Nakano really can make good Songs but sometimes he goes into the wrong direction which never really happend with HAL ( and yes i know Yuta Nakano was once a HAL member )

And Sexy little things with a HAL arrangement would be much better than it is now, I'm 100% sure, because this Song is boring as hell

I disagree so much lol, everything about that song is so interesting to me and if HAL arranged it it would just be more of the same, probably another HONEY or something. I don't hate HAL or anything though, there are plenty of songs arranged by them that I do like, but I feel like she has so many better arrangers.

*haha* It's funny that I have to disagree with everyting YOU say
1. Sexy little things is absolutely boring*haha*
2. It would be thousand times better if it were HONEY*past II~
3. Ayu never had and will never have better arrangers than HAL
That's just my opinion, but like I saind Ayu without HAL loses her sprakling, I realized it with NEXT LEVEL where only 3 Songs and 1 Interlude were done by them and I even realized it more on RnRC where only 1 Song was arranged by them...
And when she now decides that she only will release medicore Songs like M/b and the RnRC Songs than i know that my Fan-days are over

On the comment about less competition =/= more sales but only higher ranking, I don't think that's true because, think about it as a consumer: on a week with more competition, that probably means a few artists that you like are releasing on the same day or something--some people might not have the money to buy all the releases of the artists they like so they pick or choose. So if Ayu and ____ released on the same week and some people are fans of both, then they'd have to pick one, and inevitably some would pick ___ over Ayu. Which means Ayu would have lower sales.

That's just in theory, but Ayu doesn't usually release on a week with steep competition, so we don't know what happens if she does. (The only competition she had in her releases that I remember were A BEST with Hikki, Free & Easy with Mai Kuraki, HEAVEN with a surprise--not sure who they were, and same for Mirrorcle World.)

Why would it only be a choice between the big names though? A lot of Ayu fans to be Breakerz fans as well for example...
I don't think the amount of sales would make a significant difference either way.

Offensive much? There is "stating your opinions", and there is "pushing them in other people's faces". Do read at what you're typing before posting it up, geez.

And go be a HAL fan then, since you obviously don't sound like you like anything about ayu except the fact that she sings HAL's works.
