SONY INTERESTED IN CBS RECORDS: Sony has approached CBS about buying its
records unit. Although CBS said it would "consider and respond to Sony's
Inquiry in due course," it also maintained it was not negtiating to sell
the unit, which some analysts value at about $2 billion. CBS's stock
jumped $9.50 a share to $208 after a gain of $8.25 Thursday.
