you walk into a bookstore and see the magazine rack, porn mags like playboy and hustler tend to have something obscuring the covers so people's delicate sensibilities aren't destroyed when they walk past and glance. hell my local supermarket will place cardboard in front of some of the fashion magazines that have "racy" covers. you can still buy the magazine and take it home and look at whatever in all its glory. it's hardly censorship. apple is continuing to sell the books, they just don't advertise them up front. a "top 10 list" is a popularity contest subject to apple's rules. i guess one of their rules is "no racy books qualify". it's not worse a rule than "no cookbooks qualify for the sci-fi top 10 list". if you're ready to start picketing apple over this you really need to find some hobbies.
