FilmOn brings back Playboy, raises price

Playboy and other filthon channelsFilmOn.com continues to look more like a brainstorming session than a service. (How long was it in beta? A whole year?) A couple of days after lowering its rate to less than $5, FilmOn raised it back to $9.95/month. And it returned its previous set of adult channels, including Playboy and a few “Filthon” offerings, for an extra $5/month.

In addition to these broad changes, there were also more of the now-typical addition and subtraction of regular channels. This time, TVE – Spain is out. The MyNetwork affiliate for Los Angeles, KCOP, is in. And FilmOn added US Armenia, plopped right in the middle of the over-the-air broadcast channels. Maybe that means that US Armenia has an OTA sub-channel in LA?

In one news story, FilmOn founder Alki David said that he had a deal with Playboy, though not with the big four broadcast networks. Along those lines, David said in a Reuters interview that he’s prepared for a fight.

Anyway, I’m tired of writing about all these FilmOn changes. Suffice it to say that if you’re interested in possibly subscribing, go to the FilmOn.com site to see the latest channel chart and price. They’ve probably changed since I started typing this.
