re: How do most of you listen to your music?

I listen to 95% of my stuff on either CD, SACD, or Blu-Ray. At some point in the future, I will probably start to move to file storage on a music server. Most of the music stored on my computer is ripped from discs, so it is all loseless. I refuse to go with compressed MP3's ,etc.
Some of your other questions:
If you are putting money into a good setup that is revealing, you definitely don't want to use an ipod, as your DAC. It's shitty. There are plenty of cost friendly options to avoid having to use it. If you are using a budget friendly boxed system from Best Buy or Crutchfield, then you probably won't be able to tell much of a difference.
If you plan on streaming, do it over wifi, not Bluetooth. Like the DAC scenario, it's all about what you are looking to get out of it.

The Meridian is incredible in 5.1, so I watch a ton of blu-ray concerts. This rounds out the system.

Bro, going from an iPod to a Meridian, McIntosh, and B&W setup is like going from a Civic to a Bugatti. There are plenty of good solutions in the middle for a lot less money. Is that really your setup?
