Full FeediTunes reaches out
With the introduction of iTunes tagging, Apple has created yet another means of getting themselves in front of you while you are out and about. You’ll recall the iPod Touch announcement included the Starbucks deal, and now if you are a HD radio user, receivers with a special tag button can mark that song for future purchase off iTunes.
“iTunes tagging takes music discovery on the radio to the next level,” said Greg Joswiak, Apple’s vice president of iPod Product Marketing, in a statement.”
The service has already been taken up by hundreds of stations according to iBiquity, and the button will be available on HD radios made by Harman International Industries’ JBL unit and Polk Audio.
I can just imagine elevators of the future offering to download the song playing to my iTunes account.

“HD Hypocrisy”
“Here’s a few more reasons why only iBiquity and a few clueless radio group heads could make a big thing out of HD radio tagging… The very damn radio stations that broadcast in HD offer no programming worth listening to. HD Radio is a virtual sewer of formats owners don’t want on their terrestrial frequencies and other assorted garbage that no one sane would listen to—let alone spend money for new radios—tagging or not.”
