I have a CD/radio/buzzer alarm clock. The CD part has died. (Not the first time; it died before, and after a few weeks/couple of months, started working again.)

It's... old. At least 15 years, maybe 20 or more.

I bought a replacement at Amazon and it didn't work (and I was well past the return time by the time I tested it). The CD player just flat-out didn't play. I'm currently coping with an hour of radio time instead of my wake-up CD. Not happy about that; morning music radio is rare, and the reception in my room isn't great. My options are limited. KOIT 96.5 is tolerable, but last time this happened, I got bored with their music in a few days. (Which is surprising, since my wakeup CD is exactly the same songs, every morning - but I chose those. I like waking up to "Good Morning, Starshine" every morning.)

1) Recommendations for a CD-playing alarm clock are very welcome.
2) Recommendations for a way to play 1 hr (ish) of my choice of music as an alarm also welcome. Finding an app that will do this may not be viable; I tend to keep my phone on silent except for alarms & phone calls. (Because too many games have annoying music that won't turn off.)

( Not happy with the enshittification principle )

• Watch Robin Williams movies
• Order pizza with bell pepper topping (along with other veggies & a couple of meats, ideally including linguica)
• Slurp my coffee when it's too hot
• Watch movies with subtitles, downstairs on the big tv
• Leave the light on in the living room until I'm ready to go to sleep
• Order Chinese food for take-out
• Get some butter pecan ice cream
• Replace horror-movie posters with psychedelic rainbow artwork
• Watch Muppets episodes with the Swedish Chef
• Make candied yams for Thanksgiving
• Find xmas decorations. Pick a spot for a tree. Get tree. Decorate tree. Put presents under it. Ignore Christian theological connections and lean into the solstice symbolism.
• Set up sewing room space in current workshop area
• Set up games library & gaming space
• After house is clean (or cleaner, at least), look into getting a small dog or cat. (This may wait quite a while so I can do conventions without having to worry about pet care.)

…All things I could not have done (or could not have planned to do) last week without some measure of hassle.

I have never lived alone before.
I have never lived not-with-a-man before.

I get to rearrange the kitchen to entirely my culinary skills and interests. Stash the appliances I rarely use (or get rid of them if I'm never going to use them); move the ones I use often so they're easier to access. Get plates and cups and such in styles I like. Get rid of all the plates and cups I don't like and only use when everything I like is dirty.

( I have a mix of plans and options )
