Ladies/Gentlemen:		January 19, 2000

A matter of serious concern has come to our attention.  We have learned that
you are offering for sale a sound recording containing the CBS EVENING NEWS
opening theme and Dan Rather's voice (the "Materials").

Your use of the Materials significantly infringes upon the copyrights owned
by CBS.  We hereby advise you that to copy, record, perform, exhibit,
exploit, or otherwise use, CBS-owned, copyrighted material in whole or in
part without its express written permission constitutes a serious
infringement of CBS's exclusive rights in such material.  Furthermore, your
use of Mr. Rather's voice is interfering with his right of publicity and has
created a false impression that Mr. Rather and CBS have endorsed or are
connected with the sound recording which is misleading and deceptive to the
public.

Unless you immediately remove the Materials and any related material from
distribution and display, and provide us with written assurances that all
such use has stopped, and will not resume in the future, we will have no
alternative but to take appropriate action to protect CBS's rights.  We
require receipt of such written assurance from you by no later than January
21, 2000.

CBS specifically reserves any and all rights and remedies with respect to
your unauthorized use of the Material.

Very truly yours,

Sanford I. Kryle
Associate General Counsel
