under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), with
respect to an aggregate of 350,000 shares, par value $0.001 per share, of
common stock of the Company (the "Shares").  The Shares are to be offered
pursuant to the terms of the CD Radio Inc. 1994 Stock Option Plan and/or the CD

                 We have examined and are familiar with originals or copies,
certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such documents,
corporate records and other instruments relating to the authorization and
issuance of the Shares, and have made such investigations of law, as we have
deemed necessary and advisable.

                 Based upon the foregoing and having due regard for such legal
questions as we have deemed relevant, we are of the opinion that:

                 The Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued,
                 delivered and sold by the Company and paid for by the
                 Participants, pursuant to the terms of the Plans, will
                 constitute duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
                 nonassessable shares of common stock of the Company.

                 We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit
to the Registration Statement referred to above and to
