     This Amendment is being filed solely to reflect a change in the Reporting
Person's beneficial ownership of the Common Stock, no par value (the "Common
Stock") of MediaBay, Inc. (the "Company"). Except as amended hereby, there has
been no change in the information contained in the Schedule 13D, as previously
amended.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or other Consideration.

        Not Applicable

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

        This Amendment reports the following transactions:

     On December 21, 1999, the Reporting Person entered into a letter agreement
with a third party which provided that the third party would purchase the
Reporting Person's $9 million principal amount convertible note (the
"Convertible Note") issued by the Company. The third party purchased $4,223,750
principal amount of the Convertible Note. On January 24, 2000, the Reporting
Person and the third party amended the letter agreement and terminated the third
party's right to purchase any additional portion of the Convertible Note.
Pursuant to the December 1998 Letter (as defined and described in Amendment No.
4 to this Schedule 13D), the Company issued to the Reporting Person warrants to
purchase additional 98,554 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $8.41
per share from December 27, 1999 through January 20, 2000 as a result of the
sale of the Convertible Note. On January 4, 2000, the Company granted to the
Reporting Person options under its 1999 Stock Incentive Plan to purchase 300,000
shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $10.375 per share. On January 11,
2000, the M.E. Herrick Irrevocable Trust (the "Trust") was terminated. The
trustee of the Trust had granted to the Reporting Person sole dispositive poser
over the shares held by the Trust, which dispositive power terminated upon
termination of the Trust.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

     As of January 20, 2000, the Reporting Person beneficially owned an
aggregate of 4,014,540 shares of Common Stock constituting approximately 31.0%
of the outstanding Common Stock.

     See Items 7-11 of the cover sheet of this Amendment to this Schedule 13D.

Item 7. Materials to be filed as Exhibits.

        None
