This week Apple, Polk Audio and iBiquity Digital announced a free new feature for HD Radio users called "iTunes Tagging".
According to a press release: "iTunes Tagging enables consumers using HD Radio receivers that have been equipped with a special 'Tag' button, to tag songs that they hear on the FM dial. Information about these tagged songs is then stored by the receiver and transferred to the individual’s iPod. When the iPod is connected to a computer, the new iTunes software automatically presents the songs in a Tagged playlist so that the consumer can preview, buy and download them."

The new Polk I-Sonic® Entertainment System 2 and the JBL iHD will both include the Tag button and go on sale this holiday season.
