iPlayboy Web App Brings Every Playboy Magazine Ever Made To iPad
Last year, Apple removed more than 5000 iPhone apps with sexual content from the App Store so it was highly unlikely that Apple would approve Playboy’s native iPad app with uncensored content.
So to bypass Apple’s approval process, Playboy has just launched a new iPad optimized website where subscribers can access not only the latest issue, but the full archive of Playboy issues since 1953.
Here’s a snippet from Playboy’s press release:

Time to bring out the vasaline!

I Read it for the articles.... I SWEAR haha
-
Playboy is a **** mens mag and a ripoff
-
It used to be a good mag, now it blows dog ass

Excellent technical work! At least from looking at the video on the web site as I have not paid for the subscription. I am all for this type of distribution, even for other mags. Why would Apple take 30% dip from Magazine subscriptions?? Sure, if you want to pre-download full copies to carry everywhere it is great with an app for storage. But this Cloud-solution seem to be very nicely executed. How will Apple respond? Only allow signed websites??

That's what perplexed me about this article - all this mention of 'reading' ... I didn't think Playboy was about reading.

I'm very interested to see how other publications respond to Playbog's success in bypassing the Apple Extortion Privilege Fee. And also to how Apple will respond - though I doubt they'll be able to do anything, as it would make them a laughing stock for their prudery. (I don't like Playbog though)
-
So - let's call it Playbog!
-
I hope they (Apple) at least have the decency to try to sue Playbog (lol) for calling it iPlayBoy, since they have the audacity to try to sue all other i's.

Now penthouse will follow.

What?Really?There's articles?Really?

I do believe all the concepts you've presented to your post. They're very convincing and can certainly work. Nonetheless, the posts are too brief for newbies. May you please lengthen them a little from next time? Thanks for the post.
