  Stereobelt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Stereobelt was a portable personal stereo audio cassette player invented in 1972 by German Andreas Pavel.
A former television executive and book editor, Pavel invented the Stereobelt to "add a soundtrack to real life" by allowing the user to play high-fidelity music through headphones while participating in daily activities.
Frustrated with his lack of progress, and learning that it was important to protect his idea, Pavel finally filed a patent for the Stereobelt in Italy in 1977, followed by with patent applications in the U.S., Germany, the United Kingdom and Japan by the end of 1978.

Germany, 1977: Inventor Andreas Pavel applies for the first of several patents on a “portable small component for the hi-fidelity reproduction of recorded sound,” which is a muddy way of saying he conceived the walkman.
His Stereobelt is designed for two listeners, with dual headphone jacks and a “hotline” button that, when pressed, lowers playback volume to allow conversation (heard through the headphones) via a built-in microphone.
The inventor collects royalties on his Stereobelt patents from 1986 forward, though Sony refuses to concede ownership of the idea.

Pavel had already invented a portable cassette player called “Stereobelt” and registered the patent in several countries as early as 1977.
At about the same time, Sony was working on a similar device that went into production in 1979 and turned out to be a massive seller.
The inventor was not dismayed and wanted to sue Sony in other countries where he held the patent rights for the Stereobelt.

Now the 57-year-old stereo enthusiast, who works in Milan, is threatening to use his payout to sue Apple Computer, whose iPod portable music player is the digital successor to the Walkman.
Sony said the long-running dispute, which has gone on for 25 years, was settled "in friendly agreement" with Mr Pavel, who applied for a patent in 1977 for a "portable small component for the hi-fidelity reproduction of recorded sound".
The key idea was that it could be clipped to a belt or handbag, and produce sound to be played back through headphones.

Finally, late last year, after yet another bruising battle with Sony his persistance paid off with the Japanese giant relenting to a settlement of USD 10 million, royalties on some Walkman sales and acknowledgement of his status as the original inventor--what Pavel wanted all along.
Fast-forward to present day and the little white wonder: now Pavel's friends say he should go after Apple's iPod as the natural descendant to his Stereobelt.
Luckily for Steve Jobs, and perhaps in respect for another hippy visionary, Pavel has apparently grown weary of the courtroom and hesitates to press his case, preferring to keep fine-tuning his new Dreamkit, a multimedia "sense extension device".

Pavel applied for a patent in 1977 for a "portable small component for the hi-fidelity reproduction of recorded sound".
Sony first marketed the Walkman, which initially had many similarities to the "stereobelt", in July 1979 and has since sold more than 200 million of the portable players.
In 1996 Pavel lost his dispute over intellectual authorship of the Walkman idea when Britain's Appeals Court confirmed an earlier court ruling that the portable player was a normal further technological development and not subject to patent protection.

After a few years Sony realised that pretty much nobody was using this "feature" and removed it to shace a few bucks off the price.
Then again, Sony had rather doggedly copied the dual listener feature from the original portable audio inventor, Andreas Pavel, who patented the "Stereobelt" in 1977.
Sony recently settled with Pavel for patent infringement.

Why, some crazy German who patented a "stereobelt" in the '70s would probably be suing Apple because he considers the iPod an infringement!

We’re addicted to our portable music devices and we need a Walkman.
First patented as the ‘stereobelt’ by German inventor Andreas Pavel in 1977, portable personal music technology didn’t makes its mark until corporate giant Sony released the first commercial version – dubbed the “Walkman” - in 1979.
The idea was simple: replace the home stereo and/or ghetto blaster by providing a compact portable device for users to listen to their music with - without disrupting those around them.
