Teol Bhai's experience resonates how most of us felt when we found ourselves deprived of all great things we took for granted while growing up in BD (shosta food, TV shows, Adda, Weddings, politics, Tunky(!!!), etc., etc.). I remember during college days in US, we would wait like starving crows if someone was to come back from BD after a short visit. We were very anemic due to lack of our soul-food and western medias' ethnocentric obsession with their own mundane non-issues. Our only connection to BD was those six minute phone-calls costing $3.xx/minute, enough to convey to our families that we were OK.

Times are now different, with the advent of internet and emerging technologies, we are much closer to where our hearts are. We have easy access to newspapers, music, TV channels, and a growing community of our own. BanglaTorrent has a very special place since it offers a unique opportunity to create a treasure trove for everything we love and like to share. It is time to appreciate the hard work and efforts that went behind this wonderful endeavor.
