In case it is of use to anyone:
The BBC Sounds app will now give the metadata for each individual track that is playing in a radio programme! (rather than just for the whole programme). Your usual scrobbler (e.g. Panoscrobbler) can pick it up and record it in your Listenbrainz account.
It wasn’t perfect, I had to manually link or add about half of the tracks that I heard this morning, but it recorded enough information for me to do this.
Genuinely delighted about this!

If only CBC would do the same!
Has anyone made a script to submit a text list of times, track titles, and artists to listenbrainz?
