ITEM 4       CHANGES IN REGISTRANTS CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.

             The information set forth in the Form 8-K for the event dated
             February 13, 1996 and previously filed by HSN, Inc. (the
             "Registrant") with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
             February 21, 1996 and amended on March 1, 1996 is hereby amended
             and supplemented by adding the information contained herein.

             During the Registrant's two fiscal years ended August 31, 1994 and
             1995, the period September 1, 1995 through December 31, 1995,and
             the subsequent interim period through July 2, 1996, there were no
             disagreements with Deloitte & Touche LLP on any matters of
             accounting practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing
             scope or procedures which if not resolved to the satisfaction of
             Deloitte & Touche would have caused Deloitte & Touche to make a
             reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection
             with Deloitte & Touche's Report on the Registrant's financial
             statements for such periods.  During such periods, Deloitte &
             Touche has not advised the Registrant as to the presence of any
             reportable event as described in Item 304 of Regulation S-K.

             Deloitte & Touche's Report dated July 2, 1996 on Registrant's
             financial statements for the years ended August 31, 1995 and 1994
             and for the period September 1, 1995 through December 31, 1995 did
             not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor was
             it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or
             accounting principles.
