Solicitor Henri Brandman said Glitter would appeal against the sentence. He will be placed on the sex offenders register.
Reappearing at Bristol Crown Court, Glitter admitted 54 offences of downloading porn from the Internet dating between 3 January 1997 and 18 November 1997.
He replied "guilty" in a strong, clear voice after the first count was put to him and his voice became less clear with each subsequent charge.
The judge, Mr Justice Butterfield, described the pictures in Glitter's vast library as "filthy and revolting" and of the "worst possible type"….’

‘Sir Cliff Richard's Berkshire property searched by police
No arrests have been made and Sir Cliff, 73, who is abroad, said the allegation was "completely false".
Police said the allegation involved a boy under 16.
The BBC understands it relates to an alleged sexual assault at a 1985 event where US preacher Billy Graham appeared at Bramall Lane, Sheffield.
The allegation is believed to have been reported to police recently.
The search in Sunningdale was carried out by South Yorkshire Police, which told the BBC it did not force entry to the property….’

‘More people have come forward with information after Sir Cliff Richard's home was searched over an allegation of child sex abuse.
The singer's Berkshire penthouse was scoured for five hours yesterday by officers from South Yorkshire and Thames Valley Police as part of an investigation into an alleged sexual assault on a young boy at a religious event in 1985.
Sir Cliff, who was away in Portugal when the search took place, firmly denied any wrongdoing and hit out at the fact BBC journalists were apparently tipped off about the plan.
The broadcaster's head of newsgathering Jonathan Munro said today the information did not come from South Yorkshire Police.
In a statement, the force said: "When a media outlet contacted South Yorkshire Police with information about an investigation, we took the decision to work with them in order to protect the integrity of that investigation.
"Since the search took place a number of people have contacted the police to provide information and we must acknowledge that the media played a part in that, for which we are grateful." ’
