Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Plan Committee
Liberty Media 401(k) Savings Plan:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for participant benefits of the Liberty Media 401(k) Savings Plan (the Liberty Plan) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for participant benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Liberty Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for participant benefits of the Liberty Plan as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the changes in net assets available for participant benefits for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2007 and schedule of delinquent participant contributions for the year ended December 31, 2007 are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Liberty Plan’s management. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

LIBERTY MEDIA 401(k) SAVINGS PLAN
December 31, 2007 and 2006
(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements of the Liberty Media 401(k) Savings Plan (the “Liberty Plan”) have been prepared on the accrual basis and present the net assets available for participant benefits and the changes in those net assets. The sponsor of the Liberty Plan is Liberty Media LLC (“Liberty”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Media Corporation (“New Liberty”).
Trust Fund Managed by Fidelity Management Trust Company (“Trustee”)
Under the terms of a trust agreement between Liberty and the Trustee, the Trustee manages a trust fund on behalf of the Liberty Plan and has been granted authority concerning purchases and sales of investments for the trust fund. The Trustee may invest up to 100% of the assets of the Liberty Plan in employer securities without regard to any fiduciary requirement to diversify Liberty Plan assets. Additionally, the Liberty Plan is allowed to invest in non-employer securities.
Investments
Investments are reflected in the accompanying financial statements at fair value. Fair value represents the closing prices for those securities having readily available market quotations.
On May 9, 2006, New Liberty completed a restructuring (the “Restructuring”) pursuant to which a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of New Liberty merged (the “Merger”) with and into Liberty and New Liberty became the new publicly traded parent company of Liberty. Immediately prior to the Merger, New Liberty was a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty. In the Merger, each holder of Liberty’s common stock, including the Liberty Plan through the Liberty Media Stock Fund, received for each share of Liberty’s Series A common stock held immediately prior to the Merger, 0.25 of a share of Liberty Interactive Series A common stock and 0.05 of a share of the Liberty Capital Series A common stock, and for each share of Liberty’s Series B common stock held immediately prior to the Merger, 0.25 of a share of the Liberty Interactive Series B common stock and 0.05 of a share of the Liberty Capital Series B common stock, in each case, with cash in lieu of any fractional shares.
The Liberty Capital Stock Fund, the Liberty Interactive Stock Fund, the Liberty Global Stock Fund, and the Discovery Holding Stock Fund are unitized funds that are measured in units rather than shares. The Liberty Capital Stock Fund consists mostly of Series A Liberty Capital common stock (“LCAPA”) with an insignificant amount of cash or cash equivalents. The Liberty Interactive Stock Fund consists mostly of Series A Liberty Interactive common stock (“LINTA”) with an insignificant amount of cash or cash equivalents.
4
LIBERTY MEDIA 401(k) SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
The Discovery Holding Stock Fund consists mostly of Discovery Holding Company (“DHC”) Series A common stock with an insignificant amount of cash or cash equivalents.
Prior to November 12, 2007, the Liberty Global Stock Fund consisted mostly of Liberty Global, Inc. (“LGI”) Series A common stock with an insignificant amount of cash or cash equivalents. LGI was formed in May 2005 in connection with the business combination transaction between Liberty Media International, Inc., a former subsidiary of Liberty, and UnitedGlobalCom, Inc. Effective November 12, 2007, the Liberty Plan liquidated all holdings of the Liberty Global Stock Fund and used the proceeds to purchase shares of the Spartan International Index Fund.
The following closing market prices have been used to value investments in the Liberty Plan’s unitized stock funds:

Changes in market values after the Liberty Plan’s year end are not reflected in the accompanying financial statements.
Securities and investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. The cost basis of such shares distributed is determined using the average cost method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income from other investments is recorded as earned on an accrual basis.
Distributions to Participants
Distributions requested by participants are recorded when paid.
Income Taxes
The Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) has determined and informed Liberty by a letter dated June 1, 2005 (the “IRS Determination Letter”), that the Liberty Plan and related trust are designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”). Once qualified, the Liberty Plan is required to operate in conformity with the IRC to maintain its qualification. The Liberty Plan administrator is not aware of any course of action or series of events that have occurred that might adversely affect the Liberty Plan’s qualified status.
Plan Expenses
Any employer contribution amounts forfeited pursuant to the terms of the Liberty Plan may be used to pay Liberty Plan expenses, except that the fees charged by the Trustee for participant loans are paid by the borrowing participant. Any additional administrative expenses of the Liberty Plan are paid by Liberty.

LIBERTY MEDIA 401(k) SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of additions and deductions during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
(2) Description of the Liberty Plan
The following description of the Liberty Plan is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the plan document for more complete information. The Liberty Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”).
General
The Liberty Plan is a defined contribution plan sponsored by Liberty, which enables participating employees of Liberty and its qualifying subsidiaries to receive an interest in New Liberty and to receive benefits upon retirement. Employees of Liberty and certain 80% or more owned subsidiaries who are at least 18 years of age and (i) have worked at least three consecutive months or (ii) have completed one year of service (as defined in the Liberty Plan document) are eligible to participate in the Liberty Plan.
Contributions
Participants may make (i) pre-tax contributions to the Liberty Plan of up to 75% of their compensation, as defined and/or (ii) after-tax contributions up to 10% of their compensation. Pursuant to the terms of the Liberty Plan, Liberty and certain subsidiaries may make matching contributions equal to 100% of participant contributions, up to a maximum match of 10% of eligible compensation, and certain other subsidiaries may make matching contributions equal to $.50 for each $1.00 contributed by the participants up to a maximum match of 4% of eligible compensation. All participant contributions and employer matching contributions are subject to limitations as determined annually by the IRS. Employee pre-tax contributions and combined employee pre-tax, employee after-tax and employer match contributions per participant (excluding catch-up contributions) were limited to $15,500 and $45,000, respectively, in 2007 and $15,000 and $44,000 respectively in 2006. Catch-up contributions, as defined in the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001, are permitted for those eligible employees and are not matched by the employer. Liberty and its subsidiaries reserve the right to change the matching contribution amounts at any time.
Participants who are fully vested in their employer contributions can direct the employer contributions to any investment in the Liberty Plan. Employer contributions for participants who are not fully vested are invested in the Liberty Capital Stock Fund and the Liberty Interactive Stock Fund, as determined by the Plan Committee. Unvested employer contributions made in 2007 and 2006 subsequent to the Restructuring were invested 45% in the Liberty Capital Stock Fund and 55% in the Liberty Interactive Stock Fund. Employee contributions may be invested in any investment in the Liberty Plan, including the Liberty Capital Stock Fund and Liberty Interactive Stock Fund.

Notes to Financial Statements
Nonparticipant-Directed Investments
As noted above, employer contributions of 100% vested participants can be invested in any investment in the Liberty Plan. The accompanying statements of changes in net assets available for participant benefits do not present activity based on participant-directed and nonparticipant-directed investments. Plan information, including information regarding participant-directed and nonparticipant-directed investments, about the significant components of the changes in net assets relating to the Liberty Capital Stock Fund, the Liberty Interactive Stock Fund and the Liberty Media Stock Fund for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, are as follows:

Rollovers
Participants may elect to rollover amounts from other qualified plans or individual retirement accounts into the Liberty Plan provided that certain conditions are met.
Participant Accounts
Each participant’s account is credited with (a) the participant’s deferral contributions, (b) employer matching contributions, and (c) allocations of plan earnings and losses, as determined by the plan document. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested account.

LIBERTY MEDIA 401(k) SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
Participant Loans
Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested account balance. Loans, other than those transferred from other plans, must be repaid within five years and bear interest at a rate equal to the prime rate of interest in effect on the day in which the loan was made plus 1%. The interest rate determined on any date will apply to all loans made after that date until an updated prime rate (plus 1%) is implemented by the Plan Committee. Loans transferred from other plans retain the repayment terms and interest rates in effect at the time of transfer. Loans are secured by the vested balance in the participant’s account. At December 31, 2007, outstanding loans had interest rates ranging from 5% to 9.25%. Principal and interest are paid ratably through monthly payroll deductions or through the use of coupon books or automatic bank draft after termination of employment.
Forfeitures
Forfeitures of employer contributions (due to participants’ termination prior to full vesting) are first used to pay Liberty Plan expenses, with any excess used to reduce Liberty’s future matching contributions. Forfeitures aggregated $393,000 and $216,000 during 2007 and 2006, respectively. Forfeitures of $231,000 and $309,000 were used to pay Liberty Plan expenses during 2007 and 2006, respectively. Unused forfeitures aggregated $195,000 and $41,000 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Investment Options
As of December 31, 2007, the Liberty Plan has various investment options including 12 mutual funds and three unitized stock funds. The mutual funds include money market, bond and domestic and international stock funds. The stock funds range from small to large cap funds and include growth and value funds. The Liberty Plan also provides seven asset allocation funds based on target retirement dates. In addition, during 2007 the Liberty Plan began to offer a brokerage option, Brokeragelink, whereby participants can elect to invest in publicly traded stocks and mutual funds not offered directly by the Liberty Plan. A complete list of investment options can be found on Schedule 1 to this Annual Report on Form 11-K. Plan participants may change investment options and contribution percentages on a daily basis for all vested account balances.
Benefit Payments
Distributions from the Liberty Plan may be made to a participant upon attaining the age of 59-1/2, death, total disability, financial hardship or termination of employment. Distributions and other withdrawals are processed on a daily basis.
Vesting
Participant contributions are always fully vested. Participants acquire a vested right in employer matching contributions, other than employer contributions transferred from other plans, as follows:

LIBERTY MEDIA 401(k) SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
Employer matching contributions transferred from other plans vest according to the terms specified in the transferor plans.
Plan Termination
Although Liberty has not expressed any intent to terminate the Liberty Plan, it may do so at any time, subject to the provisions of ERISA. The Liberty Plan provides for full and immediate vesting of all participant rights upon termination of the Liberty Plan.
Effective April 4, 2007, and as a result of a sale of On Command Corporation, a subsidiary of Liberty, a partial plan termination occurred. In connection therewith, employees of On Command Corporation, who were active participants in the Liberty Plan on April 4, 2007 became fully vested in their employer contributions upon the partial plan termination.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Liberty Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market, and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for participant benefits.
The Liberty Plan has concentrations of investments in the Liberty Capital Stock Fund and the Liberty Interactive Stock Fund. Changes in the values of the Liberty Capital Stock Fund and the Liberty Interactive Stock Fund could materially impact the net assets available for participant benefits due to these concentrations.

(4) Related Party Transactions
Certain plan investments are shares of registered investment companies managed by the Trustee. Therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest.
(5) Subsequent Event
On March 3, 2008, New Liberty completed a reclassification of its Liberty Capital common stock whereby each share of Series A Liberty Capital common stock was reclassified as one share of the reclassified Series A Liberty Capital common stock and four shares of the new Series A Liberty Entertainment common stock.
(6) Nonexempt Transactions
During 2007 the Liberty Plan did not deposit certain employee contributions on a timely basis as required by ERISA. Such untimely deposits are deemed to be a loan with a party in interest and are prohibited under Section 406(a) of ERISA. Employee contributions deposited untimely amounted to $148,170 and resulted in lost earnings of $5,338. Liberty has made additional contributions to credit these lost earnings to participant accounts.
