With a little bit of forethought in creating playlists, navigating can be as easy as you want it. Just make the right playlists (random or not), and assign an easy PIN to them. It may not be intuitive, but that's only because we consumers are used to inferior technology. The Empeg player shouldn't be limited by it's ancestors' features.
