<<<It is my impression that D.P will not be in the CD business for very long... if at all>>>
Marty,
I concur. Look at some of the "small print" from the termination agreement (pasted below). Not only can Piercy not sell music over the internet, he can't sell any more distributorships that sell music period (over the internet or otherwise). See below. (NOTE: Piecry is the seller.)
"(c) Seller and Seller's Shareholder shall not market, distribute or sell pre-recorded-music and related products on the internet.
d)Seller and Seller's Shareholder shall not engage in the future sales of "business opportunities" or "distributorships" or "dealerships" in connection with the marketing, distribution and sale of pre-recorded-music and related products."

Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
Acquisition of Assets - On May 14, 1998, the Registrant filed a current
report on Form 8-K reporting that the Registrant, through a subsidiary
corporation, Compact Connection, Inc., a Delaware corporation, ("CCI"), pursuant
to an Asset Purchase Agreement dated April 23, 1998, and Addendum dated April
24, 1998, acquired substantially all of the assets of Compact Connection, Inc.
(now known as DP Enterprises, Inc.), an unaffiliated Nevada corporation
("Seller"). The transaction was intended to become effective at the close of
business on April 30, 1998. The Asset Purchase Agreement provided that if the
Seller were unable to provide audited financial statements, the Registrant would
be entitled to terminate and unwind the transaction by way of rescission.
The Registrant's subsidiary, CCI, also entered into an Employment
Agreement dated April 23, 1998 with the Seller's sole shareholder, Darrell W.
Piercy, which would become effective upon closing of the acquisition.
On July 13, 1998, the Registrant filed a current report on Form 8-K/A-1
reporting that the parties entered into an Asset Purchase Modification and
License Agreement dated July 9, 1998, which provided in part that the assets of
Seller would not be formally acquired by the Registrant, through CCI, until
after the audited financial statements were completed and deemed acceptable to
the Registrant.
On November 20, 1998, the parties entered into a Management Agreement
which provided that the Registrant's subsidiary, CCI, would manage the
operations of Seller pending completion of the audit and closing of the asset
purchase transaction.
Because the Seller was not able to provided audited financial
statements, on February 2, 1999, the parties entered into a Termination
Agreement which provided that each of the agreements described above would be
terminated, unwound to the fullest extent possible, and deemed void.
The Registrant's subsidiary, CCI, changed its name to "The MusicCard
Co." and is in the process of further changing its name to "My MusicCard
Company". Through this subsidiary, the Registrant intends to continue to pursue
its business plans in connection with the marketing, distribution and sale of
pre-recorded music and related products.
Attached as an exhibit hereto is a copy of the Termination Agreement
among the parties dated February 2, 1999.
