Playboy and Rolling Stone Issues Coming To DVD
Bondi is adding Rolling Stone and Playboy to their list of Cover to Cover digital conversions. In this series all of the digital copies are taken from the original issues, the big difference between most book scans and the way that Bondi does things is that they make everything searchable.
Playboy Cover to Cover: The 50s and Rolling Stone Cover to Cover: The First 40 Years are their full titles. They don't just come with the DVD either, for instance the Rolling Stone one has a 2-year subscription included as well as a more than 200 page long highlights and history of the magazine. The Playboy one does not come with a subscription but it does have a book and a paper remake of the first issue which featured Marilyn Monroe.
They will both be available in November at, well, wherever you purchase stuff like this, I would assume and FYE or Suncoast or whatever your local DVD store is would probably carry it. If you want to guarantee a timely delivery of your copy though you can pre-order starting September 15th at Bondi's website or at Rolling Stone and Playboy respectively. They will sell for $125 for the Rolling Stone or $100 for Playboy. I don't know if its just me or what, but the Playboy one seems to be a HUGE rip off, its only $25 cheaper, and lacks a 2-year subscription and about 30 years fewer issues, clearly than plan on milking this for everything its worth.
