The service was announced today alongside the new BBC Store and allows users, after signing in, to simply click to remember the music they’ve heard on music and TV shows and save them to a personal playlist.

Launching “in the coming days”, the Playlister service will work across desktop and mobile browsers without a problem, the BBC said.
