REVIEW = 74 by slutty (92)

Pros:
-Decent number of models, hard to get an exact figure but pretty large collection
-No DRM on newer videos, appears to have started in 2009 as well, but only for some models
-Zip downloads of some of the newer photosets (seems like this started in 2009 for the most part)
-Some attractive ladies
-Download managers work, although there isn't much to download with them
-Good photography
-Decent price with TBP
-Navigation is acceptable although not the best
-Download speeds are decent, I got 1 MB/sec, although once again not much to download
-Newer streaming videos are decent quality

Cons:
-Too many 'fake' women, although it is Playboy so what should one expect...
-Difficult to tell which of the many sites you are getting when you join
-Click on links to models and get directed to content you don't have access to
-Video quality is sub-par, 840x480 2900 kbps is the best I have seen, and it isn't well encoded for the downloadable videos
-Photo quality is mediocre, typically 1600 long-end.
-Prechecked cross sell
-Too many adds, up-sells, and other junk on the site
-It just takes to much time to go through it all, I doubt I will

Bottom Line:
To be fair, this site is pretty much what I expected, and what most people should. Overly made up, often fake breasted women in softcore photoshoots. I wish there were a greater variety of body types, but it is Playboy after all.

Given that, it isn't a terrible site, but I probably wont be joining it again unless they make it all inclusive, make all videos downloadable, and increase their video and photo specs significantly.

The main reason I joined was someone told me there was a local girl who had posed for them, which would have been interesting, but I couldn't find her, and I was in the mood for some softcore material. Probably should have just joined MetArt again or something, but oh well.

It is hard for me to be too harsh with this place, because I was well aware of this companies faults, and pretty much expected what I got, although for some reason I thought the TV stuff was included with the subscription, but I guess it isn't. Or at least I can't find it, not that I would watch it much anyways.

Probably an okay place to join if you are into the not-so-endangered large breasted american blonde and very soft softcore, but it is definitely hard to recommend.

REVIEW = 70 by FZKK (1)

Pros:
large collection..seems to be relatively thorough.
took this membership because of the trial price..
i have always preferred penthouse content overall.
because of a sign-up glitch had to contact playboy
directly via phone. was treated very well by cs, so well in-fact they gave me 30-day trial for free!!
don't know why

Cons:
far more fake boobs than i would have guessed, VERY
dissapointing for me. according to tbp 1000 videos
overall and many being downloadable, i can't find
any that are downloadable! doesn't really matter though, have looked at a few videos..pretty vanilla overall. picture quality varies from average to very good. site is relatively easy to navigate. a ton of blondes at playboy..i prefer more variety.

Bottom Line:
i would never pay full price for this site.
but for the trial price/time..it's worth it.

REVIEW = 79 by dracken (213)

Pros:
- Right now the site offers a deal where you can get 3 weeks for free, (in order to cancel you have to call them, but it was all pretty easy)

- A ton of playboy extras including montages from the photo-shots, extra pictures and access to old pictorials (Betty Paige, Marlyn and so on)

- The images are anywhere between 531px � 800px to 1600 x 1200 px. In other words you get decent quality.

- The videos are anywhere from blurry cut into pieces 2 minute segments to beautiful HD more recent shots. Most of the scene can be seen as quick time or WMV and are anywhere between 320p to 720p resolution and then quicktime HD, which I didn't figure out how to download.

- You get access to videos from casting calls, amateurs, coeds, classic pictorials, playmates, some 2 girl shots, a decent forum, interviews, a how-they made the covers and a few extra bells and whistles.

- The girls look really good, which is to be expected and if you like the magazine you're almost guaranteed to like this

Cons:
- Inconsistency. The whole site is extremely confusing at times. Each girl (even in the same category) has different types of content, most of the older ones only have photos, others have a short interview, others have just a video. Some you can download, many you can't. Sometimes when you click on a gallery you're taken to a little editorial before you get to the good stuff, other times you don't.

- The search function is a bit funky and navigation can get confusing.

- A lot of the content cannot be downloaded.

- Not as many interviews with the girls as I expected, most of the videos are of the girls posing for the photos, only some playmates get an interview.

- Often the site re-directs you to buy a DVD or an older magazine, a bit disappointing as I expected full access to the contents.

- Most videos feel like something you'd see on TV, not like a porn video. You get music and cut-aways which are not always necessary

Bottom Line:
First of all this is a Playboy product, don't expect any type of hardcore (or even softcore touching or masturbation) going into this site. Hell even in the fre photos they have with two two girls the models barely touch, it's all very artsy and classy.

This comes with a bonus and a downside. On one hand most of the girls are absolutely gorgeous much better looking that most sites, on the other hand they all seem to have that Playboy look (no small titties, almost always shaved and very skinny, etc.)

What was also interesting was that many of the videos felt like a reality show, more than a porn video...I am still not sure if I like this or not. For now I left it under cons because when you have a 3-5 minute video, which a lot of these are, I'd rather see more naked girl and less pan around the room or have a nice intro and outro.

Most of the older content is a bit outdated with lower resolutions for both videos and images and no option to download. However the streaming option worked flawlessly and the inbuilt image navigator is perfect, it allows you to set a slide or navigate manually and you can save the photos.

For new content you get a lot more bonus with the most recent playmates having a longer (20 min or so) video which contains an interview as well as a sort of story- strip video... I remember for one girl she follows a rabbit around until she ends up naked then we cut to some interview with her, then back to the nakedness, then some more questions and so on.

For the rest of the girls you usually just get her stripping naked to music, a few giggles some funny faces and it's a wrap.

At the end of it all the site feels like the extras on a DVD, more than the main feature. I mean, don't get me wrong I saved a ton of stuff (since each video is so small they are easy to store and so many of the amateurs and co-eds are adorable) but I don't think I was "really" turned on by any particular video.

Here's how I feel about the site by way of analogy: most of the scenes I felt very comfortable reviewing in the middle of my living-room with friends and wife nearby, if you get my drift...it's like the playboy magazine, I'm not embarrassed of having it on my desk and I'll check out the girls, but I probably won't jack-off to it.

That being said, as a fan of behind the scenes, seeing some of the girls I saw long ago in the magazine actually talking and moving around was very interesting. I appreciate the very high quality of the images and the videos and while they feel to TV for my taste I wish more porn sites would use well chosen songs and work with the models at least half as well as Playboy does.

So, the conclusion? If you are subscribed to the magazine (which is about the same cost like the site) you will probably enjoy the extra content of the site, if the magazine seems like waste of time and money the site will probably do little to change your opinion.

REVIEW = 75 by pat362 (235)

Pros:
The price for a 5 day trial is amazing, and you get to see a lot. There is enough to satisfy your average Playboy fan. The quality of the pictures is excellent. Navigation is made easy.

Cons:
This may just be me, but I don't want to have to call to cancel my membership. If I join online, I should be able to cancel online, but not with Playboy plus. You have to call an 800 number to cancel your membership. Although you do get access to some magazine. they only go back a few years.

Bottom Line:
I joined this site because I wanted access to their archive of magazines, but since they only had a few, I was really disapointed. Then the method for cancelling membership gave me a really bad taste. The trial price of 2.95$ for 5 days is unbeatable.
