Another reason, avex do not want the audience think that the company bribed the award committee so Ayu can win, considering she used to always win that award every year.

And yeah, also because she want to give a chance to other artists.

Wasn't INSPIRE a commercial song made for a a museum commercial? That's why I thought she didn't take it.

I do think Moments was a better song, it is one of the best songs from My Story but it was also a song for a commercial (infact the fans asked for a full version so she made one? right?).

I do think she works kind of hard and maybe deserved the awards. I mean compared to US artist they work so much. But then again US artist usually have more places to tour and sometimes tour outside the states and do promotions else where.
