Ouch.  That may do for now, but long term it will probably drive you
nuts.  You may want to start clustering things by album, and albums by
artists... and maybe artists by some vaague genre.  You may also want
to convert your WAVs to something like FLAC or WMA Lossless so that you
can tag them (inserting Artist/track/album info into the file itself).  
That will scale a lot better as your collection grows.

Under Server Settings, Behavior there is a setting on whether Play
means "start with the first track in this album or folder" or "play
just this song"

I don't know why you are seeing that, a single short "play" press
should wipe any current list of tracks to play and play just that one
track (or the whole directory depending on the setting above) and a
held-play should add the track to the current playlist.
