Playboy Cyber Club
The Playboy Cyber Club is the subscription based premium service portion of Playboy Online (Playboy.com) that serves as an online complement to Playboy magazine, the U.S. and World's biggest selling men's magazine. It debuted in 1995 as part of Playboy Online and continues as its premium service today. It has many features that are very similar to the print edition of the magazine, but also produces much original content. It offers large amounts of exclusive material, such as archived photoshoots and bonus material such as movies and live chats, that are not in the print edition. In addition, the cyber edition is interactive, with membership votes to select featured models. It welcomes amateur photos of all forms and even has a feature of cellular phone photos called Sex Cells.
