"Playboy", the #1 men's magazine with a circulation of more than 2.5 million, features general-interest and lifestyle articles, interviews, fiction, and, of course, a monthly Playmate centerfold. In addition to publishing operations, Playboy also runs Playboy Entertainment (cable and satellite channels under the Playboy and Spice banners), and conducts licensing activities (it owns and licenses its brand and Rabbit Head logo for a variety of goods).
