I think you're mistaken here; if the RNG seed were the same, you'd get the SAME random number sequence. What I get with my iPod and dislike is similar but not identical random number sequences - a classic sign of correlation with the RNG (i.e., different seeds produce similar sequences). And yes, I can tell that, out of several thousand songs, I tend to hear the same ones in the first 100 or so. -- kmr ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kmr's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10664 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=47242 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
