Well, I think the PLAYBUTTONS are really worth it... they're nice little mini collectibles! I wouldn't get ALL of them but maybe one or two, haha.

I love these buttons, so cute! I'd love to purchase them all actually, but I don't have the money at the moment Besides, I'd still like to have all the CD's, so I'd first buy them and after that buy playbuttons. But I remember a time when I wanted all the singles in every version possible but now that thought feels ridiculous so maybe this playbutton-face shall pass.

^I know that feeling. At one time I purchased all versions as well but maybe sometime this year I found that's a lot of money. But still can't resist Playbuttons. Haha~

Was at tower records and tsutaya Shibuya last week, on 29th to buy AKB48 Gingham Check singles, but these play buttons were nowhere to be found. I wanted to help a friend get the Party Queen play button actually, oh well.

So some of my Playbuttons will charge, others will not. Do people know if they need their batteries changed after a few years? I plug them into the usb and connect them fine but the light won't turn on to show it's charging. Does anyone else have this problem?

^For me some PBs have light on when being charged, some without light on. Dunno why though.

I am curious how long you have to charge it to make its battery 100% again~~

playbuttons are the worst invention. I have 10 that are utterly useless because they stopped working. The only one that works is my LOVE AGAIN one.

Everytime I considered buying one, it was only because I like the designs @_@

I read the sound is not very good, is it?

I do remember hearing the sound was pretty average, 320k or below? Personally I can't really tell much between bit rates but I'm honestly glad I never bought into them.

Taking a look back over the first pages of the thread it's kind of depressing that they were marked as a limited item in 2012 but they still have stock to sell

http://www.obsoletemedia.org/playbutton/

Quote:
The Playbutton was an audio format with an MP3 player built into a badge, and was launched in 2011 by the Playbutton company.

One of the ideas behind Playbutton was to be able to display your music choice in the form of album artwork by wearing the Playbutton on your clothing.

Inside, the Playbutton contains a 256 MB memory card, enough for one album’s worth of music. On the back, the only controls were for volume, play, next-track or previous-track. The headphone socket also doubled as a means of charging the Playbutton or changing the music on the device. The front of the badge was fixed, and could display an image of the band whose music was contained on the Playbutton, or bulk orders could be made with a customised image for events such as weddings.

A small number of albums were released on Playbutton.

The Playbutton website was taken down in late 2014.

^Well, it was a pretty bad decision from the begining, and it was obvious the Playbutton would become the kind of stuff only hardcore collectors would be interested in (what make it kinda nice the designs are actually pretty cool). On the age of digital music, an overpriced music device that can only play the same songs was a choice.

Kinda like the USB Drive for Next Level. A cool collector item that clearly wouldn't be a selling hit even during her peak.

Better to hang the USB on a bag or something.
