This. But I try my best to access them later and get into them!

I never end up listening to everything I get. Once or twice a year, I try to go through my library and give cursory listens to stuff I forgot I had. Most of it usually gets binned.

D:\Downloads\Music\Listen
I just have this folder in which I collect the music I still have to listen to.
I just zap through the tracks and when I like it, the album goes to
D:\Music\Albums\Artist Name\Album Title :D

When I buy a lot of records at once, I just put them in a little rack in my studio room instead of in my record cabinet.
I'll just listen to them and I'll move the ones I've listened to to my record cabinet :)

Really simple.

I know, I don't know why no one else does this :D.

Pretty good idea.
For me, I just drop the new album(s) on my desktop and listen from there. This works for me because I absolutely can't stand anything being on my desktop, so the longer it's there, the more incentive I have to listen to it and then properly tag and store it.

I will admit that I have never thought to separate my music like that. I will be doing this moving forward for sure.

I have a folder for new stuff too, but I randomly DL too much stuff so I often lack motivation to hear it.

I REALLY cannot stand anything on my desktop, so I make a 'cleanup' folder and throw everything in there. So that doesn't work.
