The system of claim 1, wherein said first digital audio information comprises a second dataset, at least some of which is not available in an ID3 tag data container accessible to said first digital audio system. 10. The system of claim 1, wherein said first digital audio information comprises a second dataset, wherein at least some of said second dataset is manually input by the user of said first digital audio system. 11. The system of claim 1, wherein said first digital audio information comprises a title of said first audio file. 12. The system of claim 1, wherein said first digital audio information comprises an artist associated with said first audio file. 13. The system of claim 1, wherein said first digital audio information comprises an encoding rate associated with said first audio file. 14. The system of claim 1, wherein said first digital audio information comprises a size associated with said first audio file. 15. The system of claim 1, wherein said first digital audio information comprises a playlist associated with said first audio file. 16. The system of claim 1, wherein said first digital audio information comprises a playlist. 17. The system of claim 16, wherein said user of the first digital audio system can, using said user interface, select a plurality of audio files and instantiate said purchase input with respect to said plurality of audio files simultaneously. 18. The system of claim 1, wherein said remote network is within a predefined music zone comprising a specially-adapted transceiver to effect purchase of a plurality of audio files upon request. 19. The system of claim 1, wherein the information contained in the database of digital audio system users comprise any one of the following: a name, an address, music tastes, links to websites, photographs, and blogs. 20. A method of receiving and broadcasting audio signals and purchasing audio files by a first audio interface device and a second audio interface device, the first audio interface device comprising a wireless transceiver, storage and a control system responsive to user input, the first audio interface device coupled to a communications module for purchasing the audio files from an associated digital network, comprising: capturing a first audio signal from an independent wireless digital source to the first audio interface device with the control system, the first signal representing a set of digital audio information associated with a digital audio file;broadcasting a second audio signal representing the set of digital audio information from the first audio interface device, the second audio signal receivable by the second audio interface device,wherein the digital source and the first digital audio system are within communication range of each other, the first digital audio system and the second digital audio system are within communication range of each other, and the digital source and the second digital audio system are outside communication range of each other;extracting a unique identifier from the set of digital audio information for identifying the digital source and linking to a database of digital audio system users, said database containing information about said users and enabling sharing and information exchange among said users, said unique identifier for identifying the digital source and a user of the digital source, and correlating information of the user of the digital source on the database of digital audio system users;receiving the information of the user of the digital source on the database with the first audio interface device via the first audio signal received from the digital source;receiving the information of the user of the digital source on the database with the second audio interface device via the second signal received from the first audio interface device;locally storing said set of digital audio information in storage on the first audio interface device;upon receipt of a purchase input from a user of the first digital audio system, accessing a remote network with the communications module in requesting a purchase of said digital audio file;transmitting payment information through the communications module; andreceiving said digital audio file on the first audio interface device in response to the purchase requested by the user of the first digital audio system,wherein the second digital audio system is communicable with the remote network for requesting an independent purchase of the digital audio file by a user of the second digital audio system; andwherein the digital audio file is receivable by the second digital audio system in response to the purchase requested by the user of the second digital audio system. 21.
