That way, each listen could be the least time, and I am forced to get all I can out of it.

^this..."binge listen" is the perfect term to describe what I do too.  I'll listen to an album over and over and over...and wonder how I'll ever get tired of it.  Eventually I do, then it sits waiting for me to get tired of my new binge favourite and eventually circle back...repeat...

It depends on my mood. Sometimes when I have nostalgia, I turn on my favorite songs and then feel happy))

I usualy listen to a blend of styles, a blend of old/new, and a blend of "masterpieces" and "less revolutionary" music.
Sometimes i get an urge to listen to everything by "X", and does that for some hours until i get fed up.
Prog is whatevey you want it to be. So dont diss other peoples prog, and they wont diss yours

After a good 35 years plus enjoying prog and having built up a substantial collection, so I don't play favorites anymore.  It's more of a challenge to make sure everything gets listened to sooner or later and so I have developed rotation and random selection methods to do just that.  Of course I'm not so anal about it that I don't whip out an old favorite whenever I feel like listening to it.
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...
