Product Placement on TV

An anime recently aired known as 'K-ON' has sparked the sales of a headphone model causing it to be sold out for the FIRST TIME.

The headphones which cost about $260 was bought by fans due to a character from the anime wearing it. This shows how effective product placing can boost sales of a product... as well as how extreme Japanese otakus are....


But damn... if I had the $$ I would've gotten headphones like those.
