playlist

A playlist represents a collection of audio or video of some significance to the list's creator. These could then be syndicated to places like Spotify and Google Play All Access, as they tend to share a lot, if not most, of the same content.

The playlist differs from a jam or scrobble in that it acts as a sort of bookmark for a collection of media. As opposed to jams and scrobbles which are passive types.
