Good point, British censorship is much more sensible now. I think that's why this case really stands out as a backward step.
On illegal downloading, I'm not publicly endorsing it, but I remember being a young teenager and, if I wanted the latest CD from my favourite band, being forced to pay £15 - £20 for the 'European' release. [European because they'd stuck a live version of one of the studio tracks at the end]. This was completely exploitative by the big retailers.
Apologies for the off-topic rant:)
