Yeah, that and they also release 2 concert DVDs each year (as does Ayu). That obviously gives both of them an advantage over most other artists.

Hard work pays well. But having to divide the fame and pay between 48 people sort of makes it lose its perk...

She's only 60K behind them, that's about an Arena Tour release or so. Haha
Nah, but does it only count DVDs credited solely to Morning Musume? Cause I know they've had those large Hello! Project concerts as well, so I wonder if they've been credited with those sales as well. Hmm. Haha. |

I think you are thinking of AKB48. But yeah, obviously its best if its primarily going to one person although I'm sure various people at AVEX get a large cut as well.

The majority of JE and avex acts also release at least 2 DVDs/year. Still if no one was buying their releases they wouldn't be releasing so many of them

Well, the pay never goes to only one person anyway xD

Avex Im sure has some artists that do though, but I wouldnt say it is the norm. Bottom line, obviously if you release a lot of DVDs you have a better chance of being high on this list; thats not necassarily a bad thing though, I wish more of my favorite artists would release more DVDs like Ayu does. |

Even though MoMusu has a lot of DVDs, they really don't sell as much as they used to.
Comparing 2009's total DVD sales: MoMusu Spring 2009 - 13,694 MoMusu Fall 2009 - 13,073 vs. Ayu AT09 - 86,398 Ayu CDL09-10 - 56,544 I get that they almost have as many individual (live) DVDs as Ayu does but their sales have dipped to the point where they aren't even making a dent in their total sales figure compared to the golden age. Ayu isn't exactly selling 100-120k per DVD, but she's still doing rather well. Hm... now that I think about it, does MoMusu's total include every single V that they've had? Seriously if that's the case, no wonder their total is so high. 20+ live DVDs plus over 40 single V DVDs...

Yeah, Im not sure if the Single Vs count towards that total or not. But yeah, obviously Morning Musume's sales in the past were far superior to today so Ayu will undoubtedly pass them soon unless they experience a renewal in popularity.

OK XD You were right, some of them barely release DVD a year. Still I don't think the concert DVDs were the only thing that counts. For some reason I thought they were releasing much more, but now that I think of it they don't have their own countdown concerts but the JE Countdown instead With avex it is different, in 2008 and 2009 Kumi released 3 DVDs ^^ BoA usually has 2 per year (when she's having an actual tour though). Still it's obvious Ayu tours way more than all of them do as her popularity didn't sink fast. Even Namie who has been present for almost 20 years has less DVDs than Ayu O_O

Namie's been touring a lot, but her tours last a loooooooonnng time. Like the last two or three tours have been at least 12 months+ in length.
There are probably some numbers we don't know like concert tour 2000, some of her clip collections, and some of her single DVDs [evolution, vogue ~ Far away ~ SEASONS, and so on] but here's what we do know. A Clips 2 - 89,531 COMPLETE CLIP BOX - 64,323 CDL00-01 - 44,726 [partial total] DT01 - 132,554 AT02 - 6,583 ST02 - 14,306 COMPLETE LIVE BOX - 72,826 A MUSEUM - 101,294 AT03-04 - 69,829 CDL04-05 - 66,674 AT05 - 86,887 CDL05-06 - 57,405 AT06 - 100,302 AT07 - 75,551 CDL07-08 - 78,215 AT08 - 70,920 PCDL08-09 - 69,120 AT09 - 83,840 CDL09-10 - 56,544 TOTAL: 1,341,430 (missing at least 7 DVDs) And some fun facts that I had NO IDEA about: Top 10 Selling Ayu DVDs from Oricon (There are some odd placements like AT06 after AT05 when AT06 sold at least 10-20k more, but it seems accurate considering what we do know. It's odd that there are a lot of missing sales though...) 01. HAMASAKI AYUMI (Video Clip Compilation) - peaked at #2, charted for 60 weeks 02. concert tour 2000 vol. 1 - peaked at #1, charted for 27 weeks 03. CDL00-01 - peaked at #3, charted for 20 weeks 04. concert tour 2000 vol. 2 - peaked at #2, charted for 29 weeks 05. DT01 - peaked at #2 - charted for 10 weeks 06. Tsuki ni shizumu - peaked at #1 - charted for 13 weeks 07. A MUSEUM - peaked at #3 - charted for 34 weeks 08. vogue Far away SEASONS - peaked at #1 - charted for 17 weeks 09. SURREAL - peaked at #3 - charted for 10 weeks 10. M - peaked at #1 - charted for 12 weeks I'm guessing that most of the missing DVDs sold around 90-150k+ which would put Ayu at around 2 million~ DVDs total. Edit: Oh wait, I found a source for some of these! (http://www.musictvprogram.com/corner-ranking-2000.html, http://www.musictvprogram.com/corner-ranking-2001.html) CDL00-01 - 138,000 (VHS - 48,000) SURREAL - 93,000 (VHS - 72,000) M - 91,000 vogue Far away SEASONS - 82,000 concert tour 2000 vol. 2 - 93,000 concert tour 2000 vol. 1 - 99,000 HAMASAKI AYUMI - 104,000 TOTAL: 2,041,430 (DVDs ONLY) ORICON TOTAL: 2,226,000 It's about 200k off... I think there are a lot of sales missing for the HAMASAKI AYUMI DVD and a few others. I don't think they included VHSes in their total.

It's a good thing, but when you think about how many DVD's she's released, it shouldn't come as a shock.
