Take the time to tailor your resume and cover letter for the jobs you want.

Then spam away at everything else.

Save your energy for the good ones.

    Never once have I sent a cover letter. It doesn't seem to have had much impact on my career.

    I HAVE sent a cover letter, and it WAS mentioned in the callback. Mind you, I drop Easter eggs into them for fun. "Look. I'm an 80% for for this job on day 1; 90% if I'm on enough caffeine. Let's talk" etc. I shouldn't write them at 1am.
