To: [email protected] Date: Friday, 31 October, 2008, 8:35 AM I totally agree with u Rawat and those people who r in favour of ripping BGM. Since I saw the movies of our boss's like Roja, Bombay, Dil Se etc. I wanted their BGM eagerly and now in 2007-2008 I m geting it, I thought its just amazing that now I m getting all the BGM after the film release. And now suddenly a shock! Anyone who can find out ARR's reaction on this then plz. If ARR is not happy with it I promise I wont ask for it again. By the way anybody can provide RDB BGM ? --- In arrahmanfans@ yahoogroups. com, V S Rawat <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > wrote: > > When music companies or video companies are not selling the bgms, why > restrict sharing of bgms.
