All those guys who say they only read Playboy for the articles can now do so on their iPad, thanks to the adult magazine’s new boob-less app.

Playboy agreed to censor its content in order to secure a place in the App Store, where any software that Apple considers “obscene, pornographic, offensive or defamatory” is banned.

Many iPad users have expressed frustration at the self-censorship because (aside from the addition of a 30-second interview clip), the app is basically a digital version of the print magazine, but without the nudity.

Displeased by the lack of dynamic content, a review of the app by MinOnline points out: “The problem for Playboy is that the missing pieces are so obvious because they are so well known.”

The Playmate of the Month, one of the magazine’s most popular photo features, will only appear on the iPad only as a tasteful headshot.

No matter how rich the journalist content of Playboy may be, $4.99 seems a bit much to pay when some of the breast best features of the magazine are missing.

Who says print media is dead? :)
