                                  SCHEDULE 13D
                               (Amendment No. 11)
         
                                  Statement Of
         
                                  BARRY DILLER
         
                        Pursuant to Section 13(d) of the
                         Securities Exchange Act of 1934
         
                                  in respect of
         
                                    QVC, INC.
         
         
                   This Report on Schedule 13D relates to the common 
         stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of QVC, 
         Inc. (formerly, "QVC Network, Inc."), a Delaware corporation 
         (the "Company").  The Report on Schedule 13D filed by Barry 
         Diller (the "Reporting Person"), as most recently amended by 
         Amendment No. 10 thereto, dated as of April 25, 1994 (as 
         amended, the "Schedule 13D"), is hereby amended and 
         supplemented as set forth below.  The Reporting Person filed 
         the initial Report and Amendment Nos. 1 through 10 of the 
         Schedule 13D as a member of a Reporting Group with Comcast 
         Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation ("Comcast"), and 
         Liberty Media Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Liberty").  
         Mr. Diller, who may be deemed to be part of a "group" with 
         Comcast within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 under the Securities 
         Exchange Act (the "Exchange Act"), has elected to file this 
         Report separately and not as part of a joint filing with 
         Comcast.  As previously reported by Comcast, Comcast has made a 
         proposal to acquire the Company.  Mr. Diller is not 
         participating with Comcast with respect to such proposal or the 
         transactions contemplated thereby.  Mr. Diller has been 
         informed that on May 19, 1994, Liberty filed a Report on 
         Schedule 13D indicating, among other things, that it was no 
         longer part of a "group" within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 with 
         Mr. Diller and Comcast and reporting with respect to its 
         beneficial ownership of Common Stock.  All capitalized terms 
         not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed 
         to them in the Schedule 13D.

         Item 2.   Identity and Background
         
                   Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and sup-
         plemented to include the following information:
         
                   This Report is filed by Barry Diller.  As a result of 
         the Stockholders Agreement to which Mr. Diller and Comcast are 
         parties, as previously described in the Schedule 13D, Mr. 
         Diller and Comcast may be deemed to be a "group" within the 
         meaning of Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act.
         
         Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer
                   
                   Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented and 
         amended to include the following information:
         
                   (a) As of the date hereof, the beneficial ownership 
         by Mr. Diller of equity securities of the Company, the total 
         amounts thereof now outstanding and the percentage of said own-
         ership are set forth in the table below.  Except as noted 
         therein, such table: (i) includes all of the Company's securi-
         ties as to which Mr. Diller has sole voting power or sole in-
         vestment power and all such securities as to which Mr. Diller 
         shares voting power or shares investment power; and (ii) as-
         sumes the exercise of all Options held by Mr. Diller which are 
         currently exercisable and the adjustment of the number of 
         shares of the Company's Common Stock that would be outstanding 
         subsequent to such exercise.
         
                   According to the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 
         10Q for the Quarter ended April 30, 1994, the number of shares 
         of the Common Stock which were issued and outstanding was 
         40,214,097.
         
         Registered      No. of Shares       Adjusted            %
            Equity        Beneficially     Shares to be     Beneficially

         (1)  Includes the 160,000 Bonus Shares issued to Mr. Diller and 
         the 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise 
         of certain Options, granted to Mr. Diller by the Company on 
         December 9, 1992 pursuant to the Equity Compensation Agreement, 
         which Options became exercisable on December 9, 1993.  Does not 
         include 3,000,000 Options to purchase Common Stock also granted 
         to Mr. Diller on December 9, 1992 pursuant to the Equity Com-
         pensation Agreement, which are not currently exercisable nor 
         become exercisable within 60 days.

         (2)  Does not include any shares of Common Stock beneficially 
         owned by Comcast (or any of its executive officers or direc-
         tors), which may be deemed to be part of a "group" with Mr. 
         Diller within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act.  
         Also, does not include any shares of Common Stock which may be 
         considered beneficially owned by Comcast as a result of the 
         relationship of Mr. Brian L. Roberts, Mr. Ralph J. Roberts, 
         Sural Corporation, or any of its executive officers or 
         directors, or any other parties related to the foregoing.  
         Certain of Comcast's shares may be subject to Company 
         Repurchase Rights which Comcast has previously reported as  
         exercisable in 1994.  Comcast has previously reported on 
         Schedule 13D beneficial ownership of 8,627,934 shares of Common 
         Stock which if deemed to be beneficially owned by Mr. Diller 
         would result in Mr. Diller having beneficial ownership of 
         12,627,934 Shares of Common Stock or about 27.7%.
         
                   (b) As a result of the expiration of the 90-day pe-
         riod following the Paramount Termination within which Liberty 
         was entitled to elect to be reinstated as an Eligible Stock-
         holder under the Stockholders Agreement and Liberty's decision 
         not to be so reinstated, Liberty is not and is no longer en-
         titled to become a party to the Stockholders Agreement.  Be-
         cause Liberty no longer has any contract, agreement or under-
         standing with Mr. Diller with respect to the disposition or 
         voting of the outstanding equity securities of the Company, Mr. 
         Diller does not have shared beneficial ownership of Common 
         Stock beneficially owned by Liberty.  Because Mr. Diller and 
         Comcast remain parties to the Stockholders Agreement each has 
         shared dispositive and voting power with respect to any securi-
         ties of the Company beneficially owned by Mr. Diller or Comcast 
         as disclosed in Item 5 above and the Schedule 13D.
         
                   (c) Arrow Investments' previously described right to 
         purchase 1,627,934 shares of Common Stock from Liberty expired 
         on July 11, 1994 without exercise thereof.

                   See the information contained in the introductory 
         paragraph, Item 2 and Item 5(a) above with respect to the 
         Comcast and the Stockholders Agreement, which information is 
         expressly incorporated herein by reference.
