I honestly believe that the Random/Shuffle function is the greatest scrying tool of the contemporary technomancer.

Depends a lot on the music put into it, no?

No, it depends on the AMOUNT you put into it. As long as it's not 9000 repeats, then it can still be useful.

Or, hell, if you read The Invisibles, there's a way to do it With repeats...

Currently {}. I could make something for the CD collection, but it'd be an exercise in data entry and :P.
Could also make it work by letting the interwebs pick for me, but that still depends on where I go; the lonely hearts station has 1000 songs, but they're all breakup songs.

Have you The Invisibles? Is this something I should read? And if so, could I borrow it?

Some stations (currently on "80s alternative") being more varied than others, of course, and there's the method you mentioned about how to read repeats...
