I heard today that if you are a maintenance paying customer and on 6.0, you can actual request this 6.5 feature for 6.0 and they will send the license.

I couldn't agree with Ed more.  In addition, I BELIEVE under the new pricing model, BMR is included in the base product.

As of 6.5, BMR is included.  However, you need to get your upgraded license keys from Symantec before you can even install the pieces on your master server.  The key upgrades are free if you're under contract.
 
Client-side encryption is also free with 6.5.  If you have a very small number of clients and they've got extra processing power, this might be an option.  It won't replace an appliance for high-volume work though.
