Ever wanted to be able to access every issue of Playboy magazine published since December 1953 on your iPad? Even if just for the articles?
You’re in luck: Playboy Enterprises, the media company behind the magazine, this morning announced a web-based subscription service that gives users the opportunity to read, search and explore every single Playboy issue.
Beware: link to ‘iPlayboy’ above is potentially NSFW, depending on where you W.
Also, the subscription service was actually supposed to launch in March, but hey.
Pricing ranges from $4.95 for 3 days of access to $8.99 per month for a full year.
Update: that is the pricing I could see, but a Playboy rep tells me subscription pricing is actually $8 per month, $60 per year and $100 for two years. Here’s the updated link.
