TCI Music Recieves Proposal from Liberty Media

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



NEW YORK, April 6 /PRNewswire/ -- TCI Music, Inc. ("TCI Music", the
"Company") (Nasdaq: TUNE, TUNEP) announced today that it has received a
proposal from Liberty Media Corporation (NYSE: LMG.A, LMG.B) for a transaction
in which Liberty would contribute substantially all of its internet and
interactive television assets, including those held by its wholly owned
subsidiary, Liberty Digital, to TCI Music in exchange for newly issued shares
of TCI Music's Series B common stock. The assets proposed to be contributed
include equity investments in various internet companies, including
priceline.com, iVillage, Sportsline USA, and drugstore.com, as well as
Liberty's rights to provide interactive video services to AT&T cable systems
under an agreement entered into in connection with the AT&T/TCI merger. TCI
Music would assume approximately $50 million in debt related to the
contributed assets.
Liberty also would agree to loan up to $50 million to TCI Music pursuant
to a convertible note on terms to be mutually agreed. Debt currently owed by
TCI Music to Liberty also would become convertible debt on the same terms.
Following the transaction, TCI Music will change its name to Liberty
Digital. Subject to mutually agreeable terms and conditions, Liberty will
agree that TCI Music will be its primary vehicle for investing in and
developing internet and other interactive media businesses.
Under the Liberty proposal, 128,755,360 shares of TCI Music's Series B
common stock would be issued to Liberty, thereby causing Liberty's interest in
TCI Music to increase from approximately 86% to 94% of the outstanding shares
of TCI Music's Series A common stock and Series B common stock.
Completion of the proposed transaction will be subject, among other
conditions, to a vote of the TCI Music stockholders and receipt of an opinion
from TCI Music's financial advisor to the effect that the transaction is fair
to TCI Music's stockholders (other than Liberty and its affiliates) from a
financial point of view.
