Ollee does that by replacing the original PCB. In this project the movement is kept original.

I recall the blog n-o-d-e did successfully put an NFC chip inside while also retaining the default PCB, so there is at least some free space in the case...

I wish there were a way to put the chip & antenna inside (or behind?) the watch casing.

While this is really impressive, putting something in front of the faceplate breaks the great F-91W look and feel for me.

> Would be a nice bonus for premium accounts to have lifetime play counts, and maybe 2 years of play history.

I wonder if they provide this data if you do a "download your information" request. I remember some discussion about how much info that archive had:

Last.fm is great! I do like the breakdowns you can do there, especially the query for the top songs/artists of the last 30 days, year & all time.

It's not as seamless to jump in and listen to stuff on lastfm though.

Oh this is great, i might run this over my backups to retain the artists/titles as well.

It is relatively easy (currently) to take a playlist and back it up as a plain text file.

CTRL+A, CTRL+C from web or desktop puts a newline separated plain text list of songs on your clipboard.

Main risk is that the list is in the format of "https[:]//open[.]spotify[.]com/track/[song-id]", so Spotify may break the lookup of these IDs in the future.
