    Yes. Also, you can shuffle playlists. Anyway, I have about ~40 current playlists, not counting sub-sets, out of which I use 5-10 day-to-day. They’re basically genre/mood tags but I don’t want to clutter up my entire library with fake genres so playlists it is.

    I used to run a single playlist, essentially just my entire library, but the issue with that is I would be skipping songs constantly and it would jump from upbeat to sad to energetic to slow… it got old. Now, if I’m feeling in a rave mood I put on that playlist. Pop? Got it. Angry, sad, EDM, synthwave, swing, phonk, metal, hip-hop… the list goes on but I’ve got playlists for 'em and I don’t want to listen to each of them every day or at the same time. If I am feeling multiple I just queue up multiple on shuffle. It’s allowed me to be a lot more adventurous in my music taste by separating out the rare listens for only when I need them. Keeps me from getting bored of them.
