if the discussion is on who made tamil people enjoy the most ..then it must be ilayaraja with 700 movies!
if the discussion is on who dominated unonimously....its ilayaraja!
rahman never dominated the tamil music world...he did very few movies which is never domination!
domination means the kinds of ilayaraja where every movie at a festival releases with raja music..rajni,kamal mohan ramarajan prabhu sathyaraj or anyone!
all movies with ilayaraja...thats domination!

IR might have dominated the post MSV era. But that cannot be taken as a domination on tamil audience ! For e.g., people who might have enjoyed MSV era might not have felt it great ! IMO. IR was able to dominate the then ordinary MDs. Eventually DEVA who copied / replicated him which eliminated this domination to certain extent ! But this never eliminates your observation on his domination during the period of MOHAN, RR, etc. I can accept with MOHAN / KH / RK era. But prabhu, sathyraj etc combo - almost saturated the feel and the GOLDEN PERIOD !
