Apple Inc. has partnered with iBiquity Corporation to offer the Itunes tagging service. This is a service that will work with HD radio receivers that have a special tag button. This allows consumers to “tag” music heard on the fm dial for purchase in Itunes.
There currently have been a little over a hundred thousand HD radio receivers sold in the United States since it premiered in 2004 and the HD industry is set to spend around $250 million to get the technology known and introduced to a much broader market of consumers. HD radio technology allows for consumers to receive fm quality signals from conventional terrestrial radio. It is unknown at this time how accessible this service will be, but it sounds very intriguing.
