title: Difference between urlopen.(url) and requests.get(url)
body: <p>My code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>r = requests.get('http://www.pythonchallenge.com/pc/def/banner.p')
  t = urlopen('http://www.pythonchallenge.com/pc/def/banner.p')
  
  print(r)
  
  'Response [200]'
  
  print(t)
  
  'http.client.HTTPResponse object at 0x0430A370'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Why does requests.get only return the object instance (in this case the respond code) while urlopen returns the actual object? </p>
  
  <p>My question then would be: how can I use requests to return an object instead of the response code? (I want to desearialize the content using pickle)</p>
