Property me to buy my headphones in aircraft use this connector. Flew with Lufthansa A380. The plug fully meets its function. I ordered 3 pieces and none broke down (were also all throughout the flight used). But only serious drawback: The plug extends toward the seat and, because it is not angled relatively far. In the narrow seats but quite disturbing. In addition, the armrest can not be folded up exhaustive, since the plug blocked the final piece. I therefore recommend strongly angled plug. It may be that I have this feeling alone but I think it's good that this aspect was mentioned times.
