A lot of times the brand or the person becomes bigger once they are dead.
May not seem like it now, but it will be intresting to see how it goes when he is gone. He may become an even a bigger icon if one could imagine that.

The question will be is Playboy bigger than Hef or is Hef bigger than Playboy. And will it really matter when he is gone?

Will be really intresting to see this brand, this company in 10 years from now.
More so all the changes if any they will make.

But I think change is needed. Just downsizing to keep the publication aspects and loss from killing the company isnt enough is it?
