                                  Introduction.

      This amends and supplements the Schedule 13D dated December 18, 2000, as
amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto dated December 19, 2000, Amendment No. 2
thereto dated January 4, 2001 and Amendment No. 3 thereto dated January 5, 2001
(the "Schedule"), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by BCG
Strategic Investors, LLC ("BCG"), Barington Capital Group, L.P., Barington
Companies Equity Partners, L.P. and dot com Investment Corporation with respect
to the common stock, $.01 par value, of musicmaker.com, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("musicmaker.com").


            I.  Item 4 of the Schedule 13D, "Purpose of Transaction," is
amended and supplemented by adding the following:

            On January 8, 2001, BCG filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission a Schedule 14A containing an amended Preliminary Consent Solicitation
Statement (the "Preliminary Statement") pursuant to which BCG is soliciting the
written consent of the stockholders of musicmaker.com to take certain actions.
The amended Prelimnary Consent Solicitation Statement indicates that if BCG's
nominees are elected to musicmaker.com's board of directors, they intend to
remove the stockholder rights plan recently adopted by musicmaker.com.

            BCG also delivered to musicmaker.com a letter stating that the
by-law amendment purportedly adopted by the board to establish a record date for
BCG's consent solicitation is invalid. A copy of the letter is attached hereto
as Exhibit 7.

            II.  Item 7 of the Schedule 13D, "Material to be Filed as
Exhibits," is amended by adding the following exhibits:

            6. Amended Preliminary Consent Solicitation Statement (incorporated
               by reference to the Schedule 14A filed by BCG Strategic
               Investors, LLC and others with the Securities and Exchange
               Commission on January 8, 2001).

            7.   Letter dated January 8, 2001 from BCG to musicmaker.com.
