Item 5. Other Events.

MediaBay, Inc. ("MediaBay") is filing this report to report the following event:

      On June 16, 2003, Audio Book Club, Inc. ("ABC"), a wholly-owned subsidiary
      of MediaBay entered into a settlement agreement with respect to a lawsuit
      in which ABC was the plaintiff and arising out of an acquisition made by
      ABC. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, ABC received $350,000 in cash,
      the return of 325,000 shares of MediaBay common stock issued in connection
      with the acquisition and the termination of put rights granted to the
      seller in the acquisition with respect to 230,000 of the shares (put
      rights with respect to the remaining 95,000 shares had previously
      terminated). The termination of the puts rights terminates a $3,450,000
      future contingent obligation of MediaBay and results in a corresponding
      increase in stockholders' equity.

      The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2003
      presented below in this item 5 illustrates the effect of the settlement on
      MediaBay's balance sheet as of April 30, 2003, as if it had occurred prior
      to such date. In the opinion of management, the interim unaudited balance
      sheet includes all material adjustments, all of which are of a normal
      recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the Company's financial
      position for the period presented. However, because the balance sheet is
      unaudited, it is subject to adjustment.
