I usually do some goofy math like cost / uses. The first time I used a $300 washing machine I considered that a $300+ load of laundry, next time we’re down to $150, and so on.
For a song I’d probably at least want a few dozen plays out of it for $1, although nowadays everyone just subscribes and streams.

I personally avoid streaming services as I know some months I rather just listen to podcasts or just not listen to music at all. This is why I'm starting a digital library of songs that I purchase. But yeah I guess getting a song to less than 0.01 per play would be a good goal to see the value in the purchase.
