I'm not encouraging you to try this unless you feel comfortable, but I took the screwdriver I used to open the player with and ran it slowly and carefully under the battery. That's how I found out it was double sided tape and removed it. There was a clear plastic film on the board under the battery and a little of that came up with it, but I just laid it back down and it was fine.
I had to stop a few times and reassure myself that I wasn't damaging the board, but it finally came up. 8)
