mental illness: A health condition that changes a person’s thinking, feelings, or behavior (or all three) and that causes the person distress and difficulty in functioning.

The term is a lot milder than you'd think
it just causes intense stigma because of serious mental illness's like schizophrenia. (NOTE: I also class alcoholism and any addiction as a mental illness.....Sorry Alcar
). Other phillias are mental illnesses if they impinge on a persons ability to perform properly, as are phobias but because of the stigma attached to the term 'mental illness' they are not usually viewed as such.

As I said, I do still feel that those that go out there and molest or whatever deserve jailing, however, it seems unreasonable to jail them just for being one. Read what I say more carefully.

Taken a bit out of context maybe, but I see a comparison to funding terrorism; if there was no market for these videos then people wouldn't film them, therefore 'passive pedos' are contributing to the main problem.
If a pedophile truly needs some gratification to stop them from turning into a slobbering beast I suggest one of three ways to deal with them. A, Put them out of their misery, it really is the most humane option. B, Remove them from society and try to help them with invasive and possibly harmful psychosurgery or C, Mayhap this virtual pedophilia can help them deal with their problem, thus we are all winners. If the majority are as good as you say then the scheme will work and if the majority are as bad as portrayed by the media (which for the record I don't believe for a second) we can always harvest them for organs afterwards
