LIBERTY MEDIA REPORTS FIRST QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS

Liberty Interactive Group Achieves 10% Revenue and 5% Operating Cash Flow Growth

Starz Operating Cash Flow up 78%

Liberty Completes $1.3 Billion Self-Tender for LCAPA Shares

Englewood, Colorado, May 8, 2007 — Liberty Media Corporation (“Liberty”) reported record first quarter results for both its Liberty Interactive Group and Liberty Capital Group.

“Liberty Media had another good quarter,” stated Liberty President and CEO Greg Maffei. “Despite challenges in QVC’s international operations, the domestic business had good results and remains poised for continued organic growth. At Liberty Capital we continued to convert non-strategic assets into operating businesses and cash. The market responded well to our progress in both groups.”

LIBERTY INTERACTIVE GROUP - Liberty Interactive Group’s revenue and operating cash flow increased 10% and 5%, respectively, for the first quarter of 2007 due to continued growth at QVC, Inc. (“QVC”) and the additions of Provide Commerce and BUYSEASONS which were acquired during 2006.

QVC

QVC’s revenue increased 8% to $1.68 billion and operating cash flow increased 5% to $374 million.

“We are pleased with our domestic performance in the first quarter as our sales growth accelerated after a slower fourth quarter. Our U.S. business is poised for another strong year,” said QVC CEO Mike George. “Our international performance was not as strong as we encountered some operational and market challenges. However, we believe we have identified the pertinent issues and are confident that over the remainder of the year we will successfully address them. We remain confident in the fundamental strength

Schedule 1 to this press release provides a reconciliation of Liberty’s consolidated segment operating cash flow for its operating segments to consolidated earnings from continuing operations before income taxes and minority interests. Schedule 2 to this press release provides a reconciliation of the operating cash flow for each privately held entity presented herein to that entity’s operating income for the same period, as determined under GAAP.

of our business.”

QVC’s domestic revenue increased 8% to $1.17 billion and operating cash flow increased 8% to $278 million. The domestic revenue growth was mainly attributable to increased sales to existing subscribers primarily in the areas of accessories and apparel. The total number of units shipped increased 4% to 27.8 million and the average selling price increased 3% from $44.57 to $46.04. QVC.com sales as a percentage of domestic sales grew from 20% in the first quarter of 2006 to 22% in the first quarter of 2007. The domestic operating cash flow margin improved slightly, primarily due to a higher gross margin percentage. Gross margins increased due to a higher initial product margin.

QVC’s international revenue increased 9% to $510 million due to favorable foreign currency exchange rates and greater sales to existing subscribers in each of our international markets as well as subscriber growth in the U.K. and Japan. International revenue was adversely affected by lower average selling prices in the U.K. and Germany as well as a 3% increase in the Germany VAT rate (sales tax) and recent changes in the administration of Japan’s regulations pertaining to product claims related to food, health and beauty products. Excluding the effect of exchange rates, international revenue increased 3%. International operating cash flow decreased from $98 million to $96 million, or 2%. International cash flow margins decreased from 21% to 19% primarily due to a lower gross margin. The lower gross margin reflects a higher obsolescence provision compared to the prior year period which experienced a significant reduction in inventory from year-end that was not replicated in the current quarter. Higher product distribution costs also contributed, to a lesser extent, to the lower gross margin. Excluding the effect of exchange rates, QVC’s international operating cash flow decreased 7%.

QVC’s outstanding bank debt was $3.175 billion at March 31, 2007; the decrease of $50 million during the quarter was due to a repayment on the revolver using excess cash.

Share Repurchases

During the first quarter, Liberty repurchased approximately 1.5 million shares of Liberty Interactive Series A common stock at an average cost per share of $23.24 for aggregate cash consideration of $34 million. Since the creation of the Liberty Interactive tracking stock in May 2006, Liberty has repurchased approximately 53.1 million shares, at an average cost per share of $18.62 for aggregate cash consideration of $988 million. These repurchases represent approximately 7.6% of the shares outstanding at the time of creation of the Liberty Interactive tracking stock. Currently, Liberty has approximately $1 billion remaining in its Liberty Interactive stock repurchase authorization.

The businesses and assets attributed to Liberty Interactive Group are engaged in, or are ownership interests in companies that are engaged in, sales of goods and services primarily through television programming and the Internet, and currently include its subsidiaries QVC, Provide Commerce and BUYSEASONS and its approximate 20% interests in IAC/InterActiveCorp, Expedia and GSI Commerce. Liberty has identified QVC, Inc., a consolidated, wholly owned subsidiary, as the principal operating segment of Liberty Interactive Group.

LIBERTY CAPITAL GROUP — During the quarter, Liberty completed a tender offer in which it repurchased approximately 8.2% of its outstanding Liberty Capital common shares for $1.3 billion and completed the previously announced sale of OpenTV for cash proceeds of $107 million. Subsequent to March 31, 2007, Liberty completed the previously announced exchange of its approximately 7.6 million CBS common shares for a corporate subsidiary of CBS which holds CBS’ Green Bay television station and approximately $170 million in cash. Also, subsequent to March 31, 2007, Liberty completed the previously announced sale of On Command for $380 million comprised of $332 million in cash and $48 million of LodgeNet common shares which represents approximately 9.2% of LodgeNet’s outstanding shares.

Starz Entertainment, LLC

Starz Entertainment, LLC (“Starz Entertainment”) revenue increased 2% to $265 million and operating cash flow increased 78% to $73 million. Revenue growth was the result of increased subscription units partially offset by a reduction in the effective rate. Starz’ average subscription units increased 9% during 2007 while Encore average subscription units increased 6% during 2007 driving a $16 million revenue increase. The decrease in the effective rate charged for Starz’ services had a $10 million negative effect on revenue.

Starz Entertainment’s operating expenses declined 12% for the quarter. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in programming costs from $179 million in the first quarter of 2006 to $157 million in the same period in 2007, and a decline in SG&A expenses. The decrease in programming costs is primarily due to a lower effective rate for the movie titles exhibited in 2007 partially offset by increased costs due to a higher percentage of first-run movie exhibitions as compared to the number of library product exhibitions. The decrease in SG&A expenses was due to a $3 million reduction in sales and marketing expenses resulting from fewer national marketing campaigns and lower marketing support payments in 2007. To a certain extent, the timing of such campaigns and support payments are determined by Starz Entertainment’s

affiliates, and Starz Entertainment currently expects its full year 2007 sales and marketing expenses to approximate those of 2006.

Commenting on 2007, Robert B. Clasen, Starz Entertainment CEO stated, “We are pleased that, for the second quarter in a row, Starz operating cash flow increased dramatically over the prior year period. This resulted from an increase in revenue coupled with a decline in expenses, particularly the cost of programming. We expect those trends to continue this year under our long term contracts with our studio partners and our cable and satellite affiliates. We continue to focus on the operations of Starz Media which was acquired last year. And we look forward to the release, toward the end of this year, of the first motion pictures from the recently launched Overture Films.”

Share Repurchases

On April 12, 2007, Liberty announced the final results of its modified dutch auction self-tender offer to purchase its Liberty Capital Series A common stock, which expired on April 5, 2007. Liberty accepted for purchase 11,540,680 LCAPA shares, which represents approximately 8.2% of its outstanding Liberty Capital common shares, at a purchase price of $113.00 per share for total cash consideration of $1.3 billion.

On May 3, 2007, Liberty’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $1 billion of Liberty Capital common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.

The businesses and assets attributed to Liberty Capital Group are all of Liberty Media’s businesses and assets other than those attributed to Liberty Interactive Group and include its subsidiaries Starz Entertainment, LLC; Starz Media, LLC; FUN Technologies, Inc. and TruePosition, Inc., its equity affiliates GSN LLC and WildBlue Communications, Inc. and its interests in News Corporation, Time Warner, Inc. and Sprint Nextel Corporation. Liberty identified Starz Entertainment, LLC, a consolidated, wholly owned subsidiary, as the principal operating segment of Liberty Capital Group.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This press release includes a presentation of operating cash flow, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, for each of the privately held entities of Liberty included herein together with a reconciliation of that non-GAAP measure to the privately held entity’s operating income, determined under GAAP. Liberty defines operating cash flow as revenue less cost of sales, operating expenses, and selling, general and administrative expenses (excluding stock and other equity-based compensation). Operating cash flow, as defined by Liberty, excludes depreciation and amortization, stock and other equity-based compensation and restructuring and impairment charges that are included in the measurement of operating income pursuant to GAAP.

Liberty believes operating cash flow is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of its businesses, including the ability to service debt and fund capital expenditures. In addition, this measure allows management to view operating results and perform analytical comparisons and benchmarking between businesses and identify strategies to improve performance. Because operating cash flow is used as a measure of operating performance, Liberty views operating income as the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Operating cash flow is not meant to replace or supercede operating income or any other GAAP measure, but rather to supplement such GAAP measures in order to present investors with the same information that Liberty’s management considers in assessing the results of operations and performance of its

assets. Please see the attached schedules for a reconciliation of consolidated segment operating cash flow to consolidated earnings from continuing operations before income taxes and minority interest (Schedule 1) and a reconciliation, for QVC and Starz Entertainment, of each identified entity’s operating cash flow to its operating income calculated in accordance with GAAP (Schedule 2).
