Playboy goes digital
In October magazine will launch digital edition to extend reach.
August 25, 2005: 6:50 AM EDT

SAN FRANCISCO (Dow Jones) - Playboy Enterprises Inc. said Wednesday that it will launch a digital edition with its October issue.

The digital Playboy, produced in association with digital-publishing services provider Zinio Systems, will be identical to the print edition, the company said. "We see this is a natural extension of the Playboy brand," said Christie Hefner, chief executive of Playboy (PLA), in a statement.

Hefner added that giving Playboy increased distribution and worldwide access over the Web will boost its advertisers' reach, and "provide additional advertising sales opportunities as we are able to meet the growing demand of companies to market online by offering ad-sponsored links."


The digital edition will debut Sept. 13, the same day the October issue's print version appears on newsstands.

Playboy, now in its sixth decade, has faced increasingly tough competition in the online world, where downloads of sexually charged content are a leading source of revenue.

Print rivals such as Maxim and FHM have also been strong challengers to Playboy.

Shares of Playboy Enterprises were unchanged at $13.44 in midday trading.

if you can't already, maybe you'll be able to make money selling online Playboy subscriptions now too?

I was never a fan of the magazine, and it seems the majority of the subscribers are of the non internet consuming crowd. The brand is still recognizable. It would be interesting to see the entire library of material available online.

i agree, this should have happened about 5 years ago.

don't they already have something like this anyway??

Doc911 08-27-2005 01:40 PM

Spunky 08-27-2005 01:41 PM

DIGITALEDITION.COM is not even owned by Playboy.

WTF is "Digital Edition".

I swear them guys are a bunch of bumbling idiots.

Maybe the digital edition they are speaking of is sex.com?
Or just Playboy.com?

What ever.
