                             2000 STOCK OPTION PLAN

                             STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT


         Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in the 2000 Stock
Option Plan shall have the same defined meanings in this Stock Option Agreement.

I.       NOTICE OF STOCK OPTION GRANT

         NAME:

         ADDRESS:

         The undersigned Optionee has been granted an Option to purchase Common
Stock of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this
Option Agreement, as follows:

         Date of Grant                       ___________________________________

         Vesting Commencement Date           ___________________________________

         Exercise Price per Share            $__________________________________

         Total Number of Shares Granted      ___________________________________

         Total Exercise Price                $__________________________________

         Type of Option:                     ___      Incentive Stock Option

                                             ___      Nonstatutory Stock Option

         Term/Expiration Date:               ___________________________________

         VESTING SCHEDULE:

         This Option shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, according to the
following vesting schedule:

         25% of the Shares subject to the Option shall vest twelve months after
the Vesting Commencement Date, and an additional 6.25% of the Shares subject to
the Option shall vest at the end of each three-month period thereafter.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing and anything contrary in the Plan, to the
extent the successor corporation in a merger or Change of Control refuses to
assume or substitute for this Option, then the
<PAGE>

Optionee shall fully vest in and have the right to exercise this Option as to
all of the Optioned Stock, including Shares as to which it would not otherwise
be vested or exercisable. If this Option becomes fully vested and exercisable in
lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a merger or Change in
Control, the Administrator shall notify the Optionee in writing or
electronically that this Option shall be fully exercisable for a period of
fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice, and this Option shall terminate
upon the expiration of such period.

         TERMINATION PERIOD:

         This Option shall be exercisable for three (3) months after Optionee
ceases to be a Service Provider. Upon Optionee's death or Disability, this
Option may be exercised for six (6) months after Optionee ceases to be a Service
Provider. In no event may Optionee exercise this Option after the
Term/Expiration Date as provided above.

II.      AGREEMENT

         1.   GRANT OF OPTION. The Plan Administrator of the Company hereby
grants to the Optionee named in the Notice of Grant (the "Optionee"), an option
(the "Option") to purchase the number of Shares set forth in the Notice of
Grant, at the exercise price per Share set forth in the Notice of Grant (the
"Exercise Price"), and subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, which is
incorporated herein by reference. Subject to Section 14(c) of the Plan, in the
event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Option
Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail.

                  If designated in the Notice of Grant as an Incentive Stock
Option ("ISO"), this Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option
as defined in Section 422 of the Code. Nevertheless, to the extent that it
exceeds the $100,000 rule of Code Section 422(d), this Option shall be treated
as a Nonstatutory Stock Option ("NSO").

         2.   EXERCISE OF OPTION.

                  (a) RIGHT TO EXERCISE. This Option shall be exercisable during
its term in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set out in the Notice of Grant
and with the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Option Agreement.

                  (b) METHOD OF EXERCISE. This Option shall be exercisable by
delivery of an exercise notice in the form attached as EXHIBIT A (the "Exercise
Notice") which shall state the election to exercise the Option, the number of
Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised, and such other
representations and agreements as may be required by the Company. The Exercise
Notice shall be accompanied by payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as to all
Exercised Shares. This Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by
the Company of such fully executed Exercise Notice accompanied by the aggregate
Exercise Price.

                  No Shares shall be issued pursuant to the exercise of an
Option unless such issuance and such exercise complies with Applicable Laws.
Assuming such compliance, for income tax

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

purposes the Shares shall be considered transferred to the Optionee on the date
on which the Option is exercised with respect to such Shares.

         3.   OPTIONEE'S REPRESENTATIONS. In the event the Shares have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, at the time this Option
is exercised, the Optionee shall, if required by the Company, concurrently with
the exercise of all or any portion of this Option, deliver to the Company his or
her Investment Representation Statement in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT
B.

         4.   LOCK-UP PERIOD. Optionee hereby agrees that Optionee shall not
offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase,
purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to
purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any
Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company or enter into any swap,
hedging or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any
of the economic consequences of ownership of any Common Stock (or other
securities) of the Company held by Optionee (other than those included in the
registration) for a period specified by the representative of the underwriters
of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company not to exceed one hundred
eighty (180) days following the effective date of a registration statement of
the Company filed under the Securities Act.

                  Optionee agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements
as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the underwriter which are
consistent with the foregoing or which are necessary to give further effect
thereto. In addition, if requested by the Company or the representative of the
underwriters of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company, Optionee
shall provide, within ten (10) days of such request, such information as may be
required by the Company or such representative in connection with the completion
of any public offering of the Company's securities pursuant to a registration
statement filed under the Securities Act. The obligations described in this
Section shall not apply to a registration relating solely to employee benefit
plans on Form S-1 or Form S-8 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the
future, or a registration relating solely to a Commission Rule 145 transaction
on Form S-4 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future. The Company
may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the shares of Common Stock
(or other securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of said
one hundred eighty (180) day period. Optionee agrees that any transferee of any
Option shall be bound by this Section.

         5.   METHOD OF PAYMENT. Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price shall
be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of the
Optionee:

                  (a) cash or check;

                  (b) consideration received by the Company under a formal
cashless exercise program adopted by the Company in connection with the Plan; or

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

                  (c) surrender of other Shares which, (i) in the case of Shares
acquired from the Company, either directly or indirectly, have been owned by the
Optionee for more than six (6) months on the date of surrender, and (ii) have a
Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate Exercise Price
of the Exercised Shares.

         6.   RESTRICTIONS ON EXERCISE. This Option may not be exercised until
such time as the Plan has been approved by the shareholders of the Company, or
if the issuance of such Shares upon such exercise or the method of payment of
consideration for such shares would constitute a violation of any Applicable
Law.

         7.   NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTION. This Option may not be transferred
in any manner otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution
and may be exercised during the lifetime of Optionee only by Optionee. The terms
of the Plan and this Option Agreement shall be binding upon the executors,
administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of the Optionee.

         8.   TERM OF OPTION. This Option may be exercised only within the term
set out in the Notice of Grant, and may be exercised during such term only in
accordance with the Plan and the terms of this Option.

         9.   TAX OBLIGATIONS.

                  (a) WITHHOLDING TAXES. Optionee agrees to make appropriate
arrangements with the Company (or the Parent or Subsidiary employing or
retaining Optionee) for the satisfaction of all Federal, state, local and
foreign income and employment tax withholding requirements applicable to the
Option exercise. Optionee acknowledges and agrees that the Company may refuse to
honor the exercise and refuse to deliver Shares if such withholding amounts are
not delivered at the time of exercise.

                  (b) NOTICE OF DISQUALIFYING DISPOSITION OF ISO SHARES. If the
Option granted to Optionee herein is an ISO, and if Optionee sells or otherwise
disposes of any of the Shares acquired pursuant to the ISO on or before the
later of (1) the date two years after the Date of Grant, or (2) the date one
year after the date of exercise, the Optionee shall immediately notify the
Company in writing of such disposition. Optionee agrees that Optionee may be
subject to income tax withholding by the Company on the compensation income
recognized by the Optionee.

         10.   ENTIRE AGREEMENT; GOVERNING LAW. The Plan is incorporated herein
by reference. The Plan and this Option Agreement constitute the entire agreement
of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their
entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and Optionee with
respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified adversely to the
Optionee's interest except by means of a writing signed by the Company and
Optionee. This agreement is governed by the internal substantive laws but not
the choice of law rules of California.

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

         11.  NO GUARANTEE OF CONTINUED SERVICE. OPTIONEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND
AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF SHARES PURSUANT TO THE VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF IS
EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT THE WILL OF THE COMPANY (NOT
THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED THIS OPTION OR ACQUIRING SHARES
HEREUNDER). OPTIONEE FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS AGREEMENT, THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO
NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A
SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND SHALL
NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH OPTIONEE'S RIGHT OR THE COMPANY'S RIGHT TO
TERMINATE OPTIONEE'S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT ANY TIME, WITH OR
WITHOUT CAUSE.

         Optionee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and represents that
he or she is familiar with the terms and provisions thereof, and hereby accepts
this Option subject to all of the terms and provisions thereof. Optionee has
reviewed the Plan and this Option in their entirety, has had an opportunity to
obtain the advice of counsel prior to executing this Option and fully
understands all provisions of the Option. Optionee hereby agrees to accept as
binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the
Administrator upon any questions arising under the Plan or this Option. Optionee
further agrees to notify the Company upon any change in the residence address
indicated below.

                             2000 STOCK OPTION PLAN

                                 EXERCISE NOTICE

Roxio, Inc.
461 South Milpitas Blvd.
Milpitas, CA  95035

Attention:  Stock Plan Administrator

         1.       EXERCISE OF OPTION. Effective as of today, _____________,
_____, the undersigned ("Optionee") hereby elects to exercise Optionee's option
to purchase _________ shares of the Common Stock (the "Shares") of Roxio, Inc.
(the "Company") under and pursuant to the 2000 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan")
and the Stock Option Agreement dated ____________, ____ (the "Option
Agreement").

         2.       DELIVERY OF PAYMENT. Purchaser herewith delivers to the
Company the full purchase price of the Shares, as set forth in the Option
Agreement, and any and all withholding taxes due in connection with the exercise
of the Option.

         3.       REPRESENTATIONS OF OPTIONEE. Optionee acknowledges that
Optionee has received, read and understood the Plan and the Option Agreement and
agrees to abide by and be bound by their terms and conditions.

         4.       RIGHTS AS SHAREHOLDER. Until the issuance of the Shares (as
evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly
authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends
or any other rights as a shareholder shall exist with respect to the Optioned
Stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Shares shall be issued to
the Optionee as soon as practicable after the Option is exercised in accordance
with the Option Agreement. No adjustment shall be made for a dividend or other
right for which the record date is prior to the date of issuance except as
provided in Section 12 of the Plan.

         5.       COMPANY'S RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. Before any Shares held by
Optionee or any transferee (either being sometimes referred to herein as the
"Holder") may be sold or otherwise transferred (including transfer by gift or
operation of law), the Company or its assignee(s) shall have a right of first
refusal to purchase the Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in this
Section (the "Right of First Refusal").

                  (a)   NOTICE OF PROPOSED TRANSFER. The Holder of the Shares
shall deliver to the Company a written notice (the "Notice") stating: (i) the
Holder's bona fide intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (ii) the
name of each proposed purchaser or other transferee ("Proposed Transferee");
(iii) the number of Shares to be transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and
(iv) the bona fide cash price or other consideration for which the Holder
proposes to transfer the
                                      -6-
<PAGE>

Shares (the "Offered Price"), and the Holder shall offer the Shares at the
Offered Price to the Company or its assignee(s).

                  (b)   EXERCISE OF RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. At any time within
thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or its assignee(s)
may, by giving written notice to the Holder, elect to purchase all, but not less
than all, of the Shares proposed to be transferred to any one or more of the
Proposed Transferees, at the purchase price determined in accordance with
subsection (c) below.

                  (c)   PURCHASE PRICE. The purchase price ("Purchase Price")
for the Shares purchased by the Company or its assignee(s) under this Section
shall be the Offered Price. If the Offered Price includes consideration other
than cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration shall be
determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith.

                  (d)   PAYMENT. Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at
the option of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check), by
cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of the Holder
to the Company (or, in the case of repurchase by an assignee, to the assignee),
or by any combination thereof within thirty (30) days after receipt of the
Notice or in the manner and at the times set forth in the Notice.

                  (e)   HOLDER'S RIGHT TO TRANSFER. If all of the Shares
proposed in the Notice to be transferred to a given Proposed Transferee are not
purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section,
then the Holder may sell or otherwise transfer such Shares to that Proposed
Transferee at the Offered Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or
other transfer is consummated within 120 days after the date of the Notice, that
any such sale or other transfer is effected in accordance with any applicable
securities laws and that the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that the
provisions of this Section shall continue to apply to the Shares in the hands of
such Proposed Transferee. If the Shares described in the Notice are not
transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such period, a new Notice shall be
given to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees shall again be
offered the Right of First Refusal before any Shares held by the Holder may be
sold or otherwise transferred.

                  (f)   EXCEPTION FOR CERTAIN FAMILY TRANSFERS. Anything to the
contrary contained in this Section notwithstanding, the transfer of any or all
of the Shares during the Optionee's lifetime or on the Optionee's death by will
or intestacy to the Optionee's immediate family or a trust for the benefit of
the Optionee's immediate family shall be exempt from the provisions of this
Section. "Immediate Family" as used herein shall mean spouse, lineal descendant
or antecedent, father, mother, brother or sister. In such case, the transferee
or other recipient shall receive and hold the Shares so transferred subject to
the provisions of this Section, and there shall be no further transfer of such
Shares except in accordance with the terms of this Section.

                  (g)   TERMINATION OF RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. The Right of
First Refusal shall terminate as to any Shares upon the earlier of (i) the first
sale of Common Stock of the Company to

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

the general public, or (ii) a Change in Control in which the successor
corporation has equity securities that are publicly traded.

         6.       TAX CONSULTATION. Optionee understands that Optionee may
suffer adverse tax consequences as a result of Optionee's purchase or
disposition of the Shares. Optionee represents that Optionee has consulted with
any tax consultants Optionee deems advisable in connection with the purchase or
disposition of the Shares and that Optionee is not relying on the Company for
any tax advice.

         7.       RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS AND STOP-TRANSFER ORDERS.

                  (a)   LEGENDS. Optionee understands and agrees that the
Company shall cause the legends set forth below or legends substantially
equivalent thereto, to be placed upon any certificate(s) evidencing ownership of
the Shares together with any other legends that may be required by the Company
or by state or federal securities laws:

              THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER
              THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE "ACT") AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED,
              SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS AND
              UNTIL REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT OR, IN THE OPINION OF COMPANY
              COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES, SUCH
              OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION IS IN COMPLIANCE
              THEREWITH.

              THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN
              RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND A RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL HELD BY THE
              ISSUER OR ITS ASSIGNEE(S) AS SET FORTH IN THE EXERCISE NOTICE
              BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THESE SHARES, A COPY
              OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER.
              SUCH TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS AND RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL ARE BINDING
              ON TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES.

                  (b)   STOP-TRANSFER NOTICES. Optionee agrees that, in order to
ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the Company may
issue appropriate "stop transfer" instructions to its transfer agent, if any,
and that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate
notations to the same effect in its own records.

                  (c)   REFUSAL TO TRANSFER. The Company shall not be required
(i) to transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise
transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Exercise Notice or
(ii) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay
dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have
been so transferred.

         8.       SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. The Company may assign any of its
rights under this Exercise Notice to single or multiple assignees, and this
Exercise Notice shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the
Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer herein set forth,

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

this Exercise Notice shall be binding upon Optionee and his or her heirs,
executors, administrators, successors and assigns.

         9.       INTERPRETATION. Any dispute regarding the interpretation of
this Exercise Notice shall be submitted by Optionee or by the Company forthwith
to the Administrator which shall review such dispute at its next regular
meeting. The resolution of such a dispute by the Administrator shall be final
and binding on all parties.

         10.      GOVERNING LAW; SEVERABILITY. This Exercise Notice is governed
by the internal substantive laws but not the choice of law rules, of California.

Agreement and the Investment Representation Statement constitute the entire

                       INVESTMENT REPRESENTATION STATEMENT


OPTIONEE:         __________________________________

COMPANY:          Roxio, Inc.

SECURITY:         COMMON STOCK

AMOUNT:           __________________________________

DATE:

         In connection with the purchase of the above-listed Securities, the
undersigned Optionee represents to the Company the following:

         (a) Optionee is aware of the Company's business affairs and financial
condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an
informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Securities. Optionee is
acquiring these Securities for investment for Optionee's own account only and
not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any "distribution" thereof
within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act").

         (b) Optionee acknowledges and understands that the Securities
constitute "restricted securities" under the Securities Act and have not been
registered under the Securities Act in reliance upon a specific exemption
therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide
nature of Optionee's investment intent as expressed herein. In this connection,
Optionee understands that, in the view of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, the statutory basis for such exemption may be unavailable if
Optionee's representation was predicated solely upon a present intention to hold
these Securities for the minimum capital gains period specified under tax
statutes, for a deferred sale, for or until an increase or decrease in the
market price of the Securities, or for a period of one year or any other fixed
period in the future. Optionee further understands that the Securities must be
held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities
Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Optionee further
acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register
the Securities. Optionee understands that the certificate evidencing the
Securities will be imprinted with any legend required under applicable state
securities laws.

         (c) Optionee is familiar with the provisions of Rule 701 and Rule 144,
each promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permit limited
public resale of "restricted securities" acquired, directly or indirectly from
the issuer thereof, in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of
certain conditions. Rule 701 provides that if the issuer qualifies under Rule
701 at the time of the grant of the Option to the Optionee, the exercise will be
exempt from registration under

                                      -1-

<PAGE>

the Securities Act. In the event the Company becomes subject to the reporting
requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
ninety (90) days thereafter (or such longer period as any market stand-off
agreement may require) the Securities exempt under Rule 701 may be resold,
subject to the satisfaction of certain of the conditions specified by Rule 144,
including: (1) the resale being made through a broker in an unsolicited
"broker's transaction" or in transactions directly with a market maker (as said
term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934); and, in the case of
an affiliate, (2) the availability of certain public information about the
Company, (3) the amount of Securities being sold during any three month period
not exceeding the limitations specified in Rule 144(e), and (4) the timely
filing of a Form 144, if applicable.

                  In the event that the Company does not qualify under Rule 701
at the time of grant of the Option, then the Securities may be resold in certain
limited circumstances subject to the provisions of Rule 144, which requires the
resale to occur not less than one year after the later of the date the
Securities were sold by the Company or the date the Securities were sold by an
affiliate of the Company, within the meaning of Rule 144; and, in the case of
acquisition of the Securities by an affiliate, or by a non-affiliate who
subsequently holds the Securities less than two years, the satisfaction of the
conditions set forth in sections (1), (2), (3) and (4) of the paragraph
immediately above.

         (d) Optionee further understands that in the event all of the
applicable requirements of Rule 701 or 144 are not satisfied, registration under
the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration
exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rules 144
and 701 are not exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission
has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement
securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to
Rules 144 or 701 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an
exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such
persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so
at their own risk. Optionee understands that no assurances can be given that any
such other registration exemption will be available in such event.

                                         Signature of Optionee:
