That is different Wmgan. Movies are often censored for television and in foreign countries by the studios in order to conform to the respective codes and regulations. For instance in the UK you cannot show a headbutt or nunchucks in a kids movie, which is why the AOTC Jango Fett headbutt is censored there.

The article posted is with regards to private companies selling/renting/profiting from unauthorized edits of films. This is the same as me selling or renting, for example, The Shroud of the Darkside, ep II edit. So really the response to all of this is "duh." I had thought this had already been ruled--i remember in 1998 a video company offered copies of Titanic with the nude scene cut out and they were shut down.
