The digital radio has brought in many players in the field and people with money and power can jump into the fray which is the satellite radio. The new to jump on the bandwagon is the Playboy Satellite Radio. It was launched in March 2006 and since then has been a success story. The Playboy channel has already reached the one million viewers mark on the Sirius Network.
The most important thing is that it is not a default channel on the Sirius network and the subscriber needs to select it if they want it. Therefore one million marks is a big surprise. To choose the Playboy channel the subscriber has to call the Sirius Network and opt for it or log on to their web site and ask for the Playboy Network connection.
The Playboy Satellite Radio says that the Playboy brand name is associated by 99% of people with the visual, and now the million people who subscribe to the Satellite Radio has made them interesting without the visual effect. The full empire was built on the visual presentations and to get the visual into the listening form is quite a feat the Playboy has achieved.
The Playboy name has a attraction of its own to the people whether it is a Television or Satellite Radio. The Satellite Radio was offered free to the users of Sirius in the beginning.
The curiosity and the name made it popular among the listeners and some of the people think that the euphoria will gradually wore off and the viewer ship will start to decline.
The most interesting responses to the Playboy Satellite Radio are listed on the message boards, forums, chat rooms and blogs. Many people have listed why the Satellite Radio is a huge success. Some people’s reaction was that if the Radio Network offers free channels then all will opt for it even if it is not much use to them. It was interesting reading and therefore it was assumed that since the Playboy Satellite Radio was offered free of cost many people opted for it. And it is not that all the people sit and listen to it.
The person wrote “I opted for Playboy Satellite Network out of curiosity. I was actually surprised how entertaining the channel is “
The morning talk show is good some wrote but nights with Christy Canyon and Ginger Lynn is out of this world.
The other interesting thing came out of the forums was that even if you are not sexy or successful to be in the pages of Playboy magazines at least you have the Playboy Radio to turn to.
