They don't censor movies. The music industry releases all kinds of different versions of their albums because (a) all it takes is some creative remixing to fix, and (b) there's no codified rating system for music, like there are with movies. Movie studios aren't normally willing to put forth the effort to cut up a movie to have multiple versions (partially because then they'd have to run it back through the ratings board. Again) They just don't carry, say, Blockbuster "17+rental" movies. -- /\_______ ____ ________/\ ____ "Home.
