The song on the radio is not being sold. A radio station is public and there are laws in place for decency. Buying a movie and watching it is a personal choice. You pay money for that DVD.

Same goes for edited compact discs at stores like Target. The musician puts those discs out and makes money off of wha sells. If Hollywood want to do the same, they should consider it. But editing a few words in a song is easy to do and still keep the song intact. But some movies, as we all know, could actually confuse people with a lot edited out of it.

I could see movies with a "PG" rating getting edited for the few swear words. Easy fix and the producers will still rake in money.

And we can't have two different versions with full disclosure written all over them because people might not read the disclosure, and then they might make the "wrong" decision? So government must protect them from their decisions. I see.
