The answer is

dram

Which four letters?

Clearly four letters

I'm supposed to remember, but I'll quickly forget.

D ram is volatile memory, which means it forgets when the power supply is removed.

Removing the first letter doesn't change much, but you get an animal.

Ram still refers to random access memory, and it's also an animal

The first two letters are admirable; the last two are old-school tunes.

Dr. is an honorable title. AM radio

Take away third letter, and the two will miss each other.

DRM stands for Digital Rights Management. I guess you miss your copyrighted music.

Once you've got me, you'll notice me hidden in plain sight.
