Exhibit 99.1

Unaudited Attributed Financial Information for Tracking Stock Groups

        On May 9, 2006, we completed a restructuring and recapitalization pursuant to which we issued two new tracking stocks, one ("Liberty Interactive Stock") intended to reflect the separate performance of our businesses engaged in video and on-line commerce, the second ("Old Liberty Capital Stock") intended to reflect the separate performance of all of our assets and businesses not attributed to the Interactive Group. Each share of our existing Series A and Series B common stock was exchanged for .25 of a share of the same series of Liberty Interactive Stock and .05 of a share of the same series of Liberty Capital Stock.

        On March 3, 2008, we completed a reclassification of our Old Liberty Capital Stock, whereby each share of Old Liberty Capital Stock was reclassified into four shares of the same series of Liberty Entertainment Stock and one share of the same series of Liberty Capital Stock. Our Liberty Entertainment Stock is intended to reflect the separate performance of our Entertainment Group, which is comprised of certain of our businesses previously attributed to the Capital Group and which are engaged in video programming, direct-to-home satellite distribution and communications. Our Capital Group is comprised of our assets and businesses not attributed to either the Interactive Group or the Entertainment Group.

        The following tables present our assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and cash flows as of and for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006. The tables further present our assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and cash flows that are attributed to the Interactive Group, the Entertainment Group and the Capital Group, respectively. The financial information should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The attributed financial information presented in the tables has been prepared assuming the restructuring and the reclassification had been completed as of January 1, 2006.

        Notwithstanding the following attribution of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and cash flows to the Interactive Group, the Entertainment Group and the Capital Group, our tracking stock capital structure does not affect the ownership or the respective legal title to our assets or responsibility for our liabilities. We and our subsidiaries each continue to be responsible for our respective liabilities. Holders of Liberty Interactive Stock, Liberty Entertainment Stock and Liberty Capital Stock are holders of our common stock and continue to be subject to risks associated with an investment in our company and all of our businesses, assets and liabilities. The issuance of Liberty Interactive Stock, Liberty Entertainment Stock and Liberty Capital Stock does not affect the rights of our creditors.

Notes to Attributed Financial Information

The assets attributed to our Interactive Group as of December 31, 2008 include our consolidated subsidiaries QVC, Inc., Provide Commerce, Inc., Backcountry.com, Inc., Bodybuilding.com, LLC and BuySeasons, Inc., and our noncontrolling interests in IAC/InterActiveCorp, Expedia, Inc., GSI Commerce, Inc., HSN, Inc., Interval Leisure Group, Inc., Ticketmaster Entertainment, Inc. and Tree.com, Inc. Accordingly, the accompanying attributed financial information for the Interactive Group includes the foregoing investments, as well as the assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and cash flows of QVC, Provide, Backcountry, Bodybuilding and BuySeasons. We have also attributed certain of our debt obligations (and related interest expense) to the Interactive Group based upon a number of factors, including the cash flow available to the Interactive Group and its ability to pay debt service and our assessment of the optimal capitalization for the Interactive Group. The specific debt obligations attributed to each of the Interactive Group, the Entertainment Group and the Capital Group are described in note 4 below. In addition, we have allocated certain corporate general and administrative expenses among the Interactive Group, the Entertainment Group and the Capital Group as described in note 5 below.

The Interactive Group focuses on video and on-line commerce businesses. Accordingly, we expect that businesses that we may acquire in the future that we believe are complementary to this strategy will also be attributed to the Interactive Group.

The Entertainment Group consists of our subsidiaries Starz Entertainment, LLC, FUN Technologies, Inc and Liberty Sports Holdings, LLC, our noncontrolling equity interests in The DIRECTV Group, Inc., GSN, LLC and WildBlue Communications, Inc. and approximately $633 million of corporate cash and cash equivalents. Accordingly, the accompanying attributed financial information for the Entertainment Group includes these investments and the assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and cash flows of these consolidated subsidiaries. We have also attributed, an equity collar on 98.75 million shares of DIRECTV common stock and $1,981 million of borrowings against the put value of such collar to the Entertainment Group.

The Entertainment Group focuses primarily on programming and communications businesses. Accordingly, we expect that businesses that we may acquire in the future that we believe are complementary to this strategy will also be attributed to the Entertainment Group.

The Capital Group consists of all of our businesses not included in the Interactive Group or the Entertainment Group, including our consolidated subsidiaries Starz Media, LLC, Atlanta National League Baseball Club, Inc., TruePosition, Inc., Leisure Arts, Inc., and WFRV and WJMN Television Station, Inc., and certain cost and equity investments. Accordingly, the accompanying attributed financial information for the Capital Group includes these investments and the assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and cash flows of these consolidated subsidiaries. In addition, we have attributed to the Capital Group all of our notes and debentures (and related interest expense) that have not been attributed to the Interactive Group or the Entertainment Group. See note 4 below for the debt obligations attributed to the Capital Group.

Any businesses that we may acquire in the future that we do not attribute to the Interactive Group or the Entertainment Group will be attributed to the Capital Group.

While we believe the allocation methodology described above is reasonable and fair to each group, we may elect to change the allocation methodology in the future. In the event we elect to transfer assets or businesses from one group to the other, such transfer would be made on a fair value basis and would be accounted for as a short-term loan unless our board of directors determines to account for it as a long-term loan or through an inter-group interest.
