okay, please excuse my blindness if this has been discussed before (esp. in this thread!), but here's how i'm percieving this whole thing:

1. "People" don't like how the empeg shuffles as it seems to group songs in ways that don't seem "random" enough.

2. In fact, they are truly random, and the grouping is to be expected. And that is what this program is trying to prove.

SO... the question i want to know the answer to, is why would we want a truly random shuffle? Don't we want it to be psuedo-random so that groups and clusters of bands or albums are filtered out, thus making it seem "random"?
