I’m wondering how do you guys organize digital music library (either on laptop or DAC) for best experience?
I personally use DAC and what I do is to download whole albums and put it in. Benefit: very tidy, looks nice. Drawbacks: you have to listen to the whole album (some people prefer to do this).
Streaming: Benefit: the playlists are nice. Drawback: on DAC it is slow, and you don’t own the music, and the library can get messy when you add too many stuff.
I wonder which method do you prefer? Or does it depend on occations?
I dump everything on a NAS running plex. And have a mixture of chromecasts (where I was lazy) and raspberry pis running plexamp (where I wasn’t). I’m all about getting the bits to a DAC as cheaply as possible, and spending the money on DAC onward, where it can make a difference.
