Zune Upgrades Wireless, Adds FM Tagging.

In a presumptive strike against pending announcements by Apple, Microsoft will upgrade its Zune portable media player to enable wireless downloads and streaming. Free software and firmware updates will also provide the ability to tag and purchase songs directly from the built-in FM radio, wirelessly access the Zune Marketplace and tap into interactive, personalized music recommendations as part of the Zune Pass subscription program.

Zune is also expanding its lineup with 16GB and 120GB capacities as well as blue-on-silver and all-black color schemes. The new features will begin rolling out on Sept. 16th.
