iTunes users can also take advantage of the tagging feature. You just need an iTunes Tagging enabled HDRadio receiver. When you hear a song you like on your local FM HDRadio station, you simply hit the “tag” button. The song’s info will be saved from your HDRadio receiver to your iPod and iPhone. The songs will show up in a playlist called “Tagged” in iTunes the next time you sync your iPod to your computer. So you can click, download and buy the songs you want directly from the Apple iTunes Music Store.

You can do all this while you are walking, in your car, at home, in your office and even on your boat. Upgrade your current system. Radio listening is going to be easy and enjoyable again. Visit: www.hdradio.com

Give Away Of The Day: Paid Softwares and Games!

November 4, 2009 by Raj Agrawal Leave a Comment

Yes, this one is legitimate and true

Hey guys, check out giveawayoftheday.com, it’s dedicated to give away paid software and games for free download, daily. You get the software/game along with the activation key and you are ready to use it with full functionality! This is a very unique concept where it benefits the down-loaders and the software makers too.

Giveawayoftheday.com has made the whole idea clear with the following words :

The idea behind this initiative is that many sites and publishers offer trial downloads; but only we offer giveaway downloads. What does that mean?

Basically, every day we nominate one software title that will be a Giveaway title of that day. The software will be available for download for 24 hours (or more, if agreed by software publisher) and that software will be absolutely free. That means – not a trial, not a limited version – but a registered and legal version of the software will be free for our visitors*.

The software product will be presented in its full functionality, without any limitations save for those mentioned in Terms and Conditions.

Did you notice the familiar * mark on one of the statements? Yes, all freebies come along with certain conditions applied. The software/game usage is limited to non-commercial only, and may also have limited software updates and technical support. But, it’s still good enough to get a break from piracy? Isn’t it?
