have you guys noticed that the shuffle version is not really shuffle? It sometimes plays the same artist twice in a row...

I forgot to mention that I tried to change the shuffle settings to “more or less likely” to play the same songs/artists/albums but it seems it’s even worth…. Any suggestion??

If the shuffle function were truly random, it is perfectly possible that, by chance, two songs by the same artist would play in a row. Thus, your experience is not an indication that shuffle is "broken."
