On things as simple as this you can also use LWP::Simple

use LWP::Simple;
my $html = get($url);

LWP::Simple

LWP::UserAgent

HTTP::Request

and

This can be quite advantageous and has most recently allowed the WWW::SimpleRobot module to be rewritten to make only a single request per page when crawling a web site (rather than the two requests it had previously been making using LWP::Simple - a request with the HEAD method for the page headers and the GET method for the page content) - The result was a considerable increase in module speed.

To my mind there needs to be a very good reason as to why to use LWP::Simple in place of LWP::UserAgent and HTTP::Request rather than the other way around.
