Flanders: I have operated in the media business my entire career and have taken on situations with businesses in transition. Everywhere I?ve gone I?ve been a change agent. In 1999, I joined Columbia House, which was a $1.5 billion marketer of music and VHF tapes right before Napster was released and DVDs emerged. We had a business that was over 50 years old, that started in the same timeframe as Playboy, that needed to migrate into the new model, including online. I think that singular experience is most analogous to the opportunities for Playboy.
What ever happend to Columbia House?
