For me, radio is on for my mornings, got a couple stations that I like. Mid-day is usually a couple of records, what ever moves me. For the evening, cooking dinner, or hanging out, put on a Tidal playlist. I really like Tidal's "My Mixes" or I use one of their "personal radio stations" just pick what general mood I'm in.
Learned that playing records while cooking dinner is just a bad thing!! Don't suggest listing to vinyl when cooking. My system is vintage, so no remote anything. with my streamer (not vintage 
) it has volume along with control over content. That works well when not in my music room.
