HD Radio is a technology that enables to send digital
broadcasting as well as analog one using existing frequencies
for FM or AM broadcasting.
Quality of broadcast is improved to the level of music CD in
digital FM and that of analog FM in digital AM.
Moreover, if receiving condition is good, you can listen to
programs in stereo with the digital AM broadcast.
Digital broadcasting can send other information than audio, so
you can display data such as title of music.
