I maximize my enjoyable listening time with minimal angst by ripping everything to my music library and letting the streamer play in random mode. All music I like and no decision making.
This works well much of the time. I always loved listening to music on the radio as a kid and this is like programming my own station. I choose what is in the library but not what to listen to when. Great for gaining a deeper apprciation for the music you like most.
Also whenever I play a record, I convert and master it to digital then into the library it goes. Possibly never to have to be played again.
Maintaining a good quality digital music library does require some time invested regularly but may prove worth it for some. 2402 albums in mine to-date. Sharable via Plex.
