Burger King Japan Installs ''Musical Showers''

[JMcEntegart]

Jukeboxes used to be pretty common in restaurants, particularly fast food joints. However, anyone who's used one knows that with just one jukebox for the entire restaurant, you often have to wait a while before your selections comes on.

If it will be free of charge and the music was effectively confined to the booth then yeah sounds pretty cool. They should include a 3.5mm jack for non-iPod devices too though. And I'm assuming volume is controlled by a computer or human to ensure it doesn't get obnoxiously loud?

Cone of Silence ... ??

Looks like the Sound Dome, and according to the manufacturer, nobody but the person sitting under the dome can hear it.

Not a bad idea, but only if nobody else can hear it.

I agree as long as I don't have to stab my ears out with a stale french fry because the table next to me is playing what new song....

they had these in use in an electronics store in houston. The sound coming from the dome was still audible a few feet from the dome. You might be lucky to hear the music from the table next to you but it wouldn't make it anywhere across the restaurant.

 

[drwho1]

what about a burger with REAL meat and cook "my way".

 

[Ramar]

They have these all over the place. I live in a fairly rural area, and our gamestop and library has them.

 

[PieceMaker42]

I would love this and would actually use this if out with friends.

I've seen those dome things before and they do a really good job at isolating the sound. You only hear it if you stand directly underneath.

I love Japan.

SO much.

Japanese fast food restaurant is actually tolerable.

After moving to Canada, I find myself going to it way less.

 

[filoz]

Watch me kick that bass on that new piece of technology, teehee.

 

[Fusion777]

This is damn awesome. I wonder if you'll hear Jobs to hold your hamburger differently?

 

[falchard]

That is the nicest Burger King I have seen.

 

[ksampanna]

Yeah, I can visualise a nun hearing Sexy Bitch from across the table

 

[chronicbint]

Why would anyone be in a Burger King "restaurant" for long enough to want to listen to any music.

 

[Lewis57]

That sounds amazing, but I'm guessing there will be music clashing.

Man, if that's a BK, I'd love to see what an "upscale" restaurant looks like in Japan...
