Comment Spotify/Sono's Random function sucks! (Score 1) 40

My wife created 31 play lists, one for each day of the month. She did this because Sonos and Spotify don't work well when playlists get too large. 1,000 is pretty much an upper limit. We found out quickly that when you start each day with a "shuffle", that day's playlist is always played in the *exact same order*! Why not take the current time into account? To add insult to injury, their random function will repeat a track before all of the other tracks have been played. I'm pretty sure there's a "card deal" algorithm that could keep that from happening.
