Does anyone else have this problem? iTunes seems to play some songs more than others. If I have "shuffle" on, some songs play way more often than others. Some I forgot I even have until I stumble across them. Can itunes only shuffle so many songs or what? And yes, I do have the "Library" set as the playlist...

Anyone else notice this? I thought I was crazy until my wife confirmed my suspicions..

Well if iTunes shuffles to play them radomly then should'nt some songs come up more than others. I'm not saying it isn't a problem.

There are some guys at work that "come up" for drug testing more than others and it's random.

actually, this is the biggest reason why I hate winAmp. Shuffle should not mean that after every song you randomly pick another song (that's the way winAmp works). It should mean that when you select shuffle, it creates a new playlist with every song ONCE in a random order, and plays that. This is the way SoundJam worked (and you could even view and edit the random playlist), but I don't know how iTunes works.
blackmail is such an ugly word. I prefer extortion. the X makes it sound cool
