      'Now Playing' is a Pixel-exclusive feature that displays the name and artist of whatever song is playing near the user/the speakers can pick up.

      There are two issues with this in regards to LB, firstly that we submit them at all (e.g. a user may not want whatever's playing in the shopping mall to show up as 'their' listen), and secondly that we don't parse them properly (e.g. the artist will be something like ""artist_name": "Tap to see your song history"")

      Step 1 (this ticket), we need to block these listens from being submitted:

            "media_player": "Android System Intelligence",
            "submission_client": "ListenBrainz Android",
      

      Step 2 (MOBILE-180), is if we want to re-enable it as an option and parse it properly.
