If you do not mind keeping your CD audio in lossless format (ogg, flac, alac, et cetera) there are a number of solutions for your problem. In my opinion keeping the media in a bit for bit copy produces the same sound as an already digital CD, but depending on your equipment and mentality, you may disagree.
So I write this for those who would will take it. Once you are running your audio through an intelligent system, as opposed to a "dumb" receiver (i.e. one that can not differentiate between tracks in any meaningful manner) you have many more options to combat this problem. One are solutions such as ReplayGain, which encode into the "tag" EQ settings so that upon next replay of the song, the program utilizing the approach will change their output to your last settings. These, being saved in the audio file, are kept even if the program goes kaput. Farther down the line, we have programs that can memorize in a database settings. And farther down the line you have the approach used by radio stations, which involves actively modifying the sound on a song-by-song basis to be equivalent to every other song. These can be had in a software/internal hardware/breakout box format, depending on who you are, how much money you can throw at it, and how hard you look.
Just a few cents from me.
My personal solution? Walk around with the remote. But I am a lazy, albeit wandering, scribe.
