NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form
10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended
December 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for the year as a whole. For further information, refer
to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included
in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30,
1997.

2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARD

During June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board released
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 ("SFAS 131"),
"Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information",
which requires a disclosure of business segments in the financial
statements of the Company. The Company expects to adopt SFAS No. 131 in
fiscal 1999 and anticipates a change in segment disclosure at the time
of adoption.

3. COMPUTATION OF NET INCOME PER SHARE

During the second quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company adopted Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings Per Share."
As a result, all previously reported earnings per share have been
restated. Basic earnings per share have been computed by dividing net
income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the
period. Diluted earnings per share have been computed assuming the
exercise of stock options and their related income tax effect.

For the three-month periods ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, weighted
average shares outstanding included common stock equivalents of
approximately 184,000 shares and 127,000 shares, respectively, related
to stock options. For the six-month periods ended December 31, 1997 and
1996, weighted average shares outstanding included common stock
equivalents of approximately 297,000 shares and 96,000 shares,
respectively, related to stock options.

4. LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

On November 19, 1997, certain of the Company's subsidiaries entered
into a new four year $10 million credit facility with a Foothill
Capital Corporation. The credit facility consists of a $4 million term
loan due November 19, 2001, and a $6 million revolving line of credit
facility. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at the prime rate
and are secured by the assets of certain U.S. subsidiaries, including
accounts receivable, inventories, equipment, music library and general
intangibles. The loan agreement contains certain financial and other
covenants or restrictions, including the maintenance of a minimum
tangible net worth by the Company, limitations on capital expenditures,
restrictions on music library acquisitions, limitations on the
incurrence of indebtedness, and restrictions on dividends to the
Company. The Company has guaranteed the obligations of
