Playboy Plus Review by Vanessa Playboy Plus

Review by Vanessa

Released May 13, '10 , Written May 2, '10
Intro

Playboy Magazine, Playboy Bunnies, Playboy Mansion, Playboy Channel, what else am I missing? Oh! I know, Playboy Cyberclub! Apparently this is Playboy like you've never seen before. You gain access to Playmates, Cyber Girls, Celebrities, Coeds, Amateurs, Special Additions, and more all online; over 22,000 images and 263 videos as well as magazine issues and chatboards, additional Playboy pictorials and exclusives going "beyond the pages of Playboy to give you access to more women, more video, more exclusive content anywhere." And the price of admission isn't bad either. As a reader of The Best Porn you can get in on the goods for less than $15 bucks per month. That's an insane deal for so much quality Playboy content and all the extras that this powerhouse has grown to encompass over the years.


The Pros

  Enormous Archive of All Playboy Original Content.

Your main menu is at the top of this very organized main member's area page, and it features: Playmates, Cyber Girls, Playmates, Celebrities, Coeds, Amateurs, Special Editions, Playboy Magazine, more girls, and extras. I headed straight for Cyber Girls, which is very cool. They have chosen different girls as Cyber Girl of the Week/Month/Year and clicking on them takes you to their stats, pictorials, and the ability to discuss this girl with other Cyber Club members. These girls are heavenly too, all Playboy material of course.

For the playmates section, your categorical options for browsing are endless as well. Starting with the Playmate Files, this is where you go to find pictures of previously unpublished playmates. By clicking on one of the girl's you are able to browse previous or later months to see other Previously Unpublished girls. Each Playmate comes with a lengthy background bio (intro), a quick read (data sheet), followed by the Pictorial and Centerfold images. The Centerfold Gallery is similar to the Centerfold images in the Playmate Files section, in that they are all a single image available in "Cyber Zoom". You can even see Miss December 1953, Marilyn Monroe in full screen zoom naked glory. PMOY picks a Playmate of the Year and features them here along with her published and unpublished photos as well as a couple of videos.

The Playmate Video Jukebox is a complete archive of Playmate videos and a new one is added almost weekly. These Jukebox Videos can go way back to 1989, can we say hello big hair and full grown bush? Playmate Test (shots) is pretty cool, it's main set up like the rest of the image archive, except these are shots taken of girls before they made it to the cover.

And there's just so much more to the other site sections...Celebrities, Coeds, etc.

  Quality These Days Looks Great.

Playboy is keeping up with the times in terms of quality, currently offering HD MOV video specs since November 2009 on. These downloads/streams overall look great, although I found the picture quality slightly washed out and not quite as sharp as you would expect for HD. The WMV format offers bitrates up to 1400k and have the same color quality issue, but overall look nice.

Image sizing and quality is certainly Playboy quality and style. These are some gorgeous babes in amazing photography and it shows.

  Overall Nice Site Design With Plenty of Browse Options.

Cyberclub separates content into sections I've described a little bit already above. They also offer search tools on the main page, as well as in the Playmate area with a Playmate Search. This is a large amount of content ranging from online exclusives to magazine archives and more, so overall they've done a nice job at getting around easy enough.

  Daily Updates & Reduced Membership Pricing.

Daily updates have been the norm for as long as I can remember here at Cyberclub. This keeps the already massive archive growing at a pace I'm not even sure you can keep up with! As a reader of The Best Porn you can get in on the action for less than $15 bucks per month - a steal for so much content!

Other Good Stuff:

  • Tons of extras and ways to get involved like Wiki model pages, message boards, chats, jokes, events, etc.
  • ZIPs are offered for the image sets, which can also be viewed in-browser in 2-3 size formats. Cyber Zoom can be used to zoom in on pictures within the centerfolds section of the site. Newest videos are broken down into clips, but offer download formats for MOV, WMV and MP4 for your mobile device.

The Cons

  Older Content Quality Ranges & Can Be Lacking.

With archives of content dating back to 1989 for the videos and 2000's for Cyber Girls & other online portfolios (amateurs, coeds, etc.) the quality of the content can range from downright oldschool (300k video bitrates) to average. Images always seemed to be decently sized, but you will find some below the 800x600p mark. Even the newest WMV streams don't offer quite the specs and bitrate speeds I was hoping for from Playboy. I'd love to see some HD quality WMV files offered in the future.

  Old Page Formats Still Intact & No Advanced Search.

Clearly they've done an overall nice job at organizing all this Playboy content & re-designing the main member's area pages, but you will find the old design pages still intact when it comes to many of the archives.

In terms of a search feature, other than the semi-advanced one for the Playmates section, your only other search feature is a simple keyword box at the top of the page. Results come in the standard Google like fashion, but some sort of advanced tool with multiple filters, categories, and options would be helpful for this bounty of content.

Minor Negatives:

  • Video download options listed are for the newest additions only. Most of the archives are actually stream-only and don't offer any sort of download option.
  • Background music in most videos may not be appealing to some.
  • Many ads and up-sells on member's area pages.
  • Download speeds can be slow without the use of a DL manager.
  • Must call a 1-800 # in order to cancel your membership.

Bottom Line

A top choice for Playboy fans at a reasonable price.

Playboy's Cyberclub is everything you ever wanted Playboy and much, much more. Users can easily spend hours navigating the pages of this site, getting lost in the content, checking out all of the extras and personal favorites. The newest quality improvements are appreciated, but I still think they could do more on that front. At some point it would be nice if they got rid of the older archive pages with a more cohesive, improved site design with added advanced search tools. Overall though, there's so much to see and do here that the low monthly price tag really feels like a steal; whether it's checking out the latest issue of Playboy, learning about the Cyber Girl of the week, chatting with the Playmates, or simply browsing the archives Playboy Plus is certainly a site that can't be beat for fans of Playboy content.
