If the shuffle is broken, I want to continue from last random shuffle

If the shuffle is broken, I want to continue from last random shuffle

Well, as far as I see the failure of your shuffle function has been discussed many times before. With almost everyone here, I'm also experiencing the shuffle issue on my personal library with 1400 songs in it. I'm really fed up to listen the same set of songs again and again while there are 1000 of them never played at once. 

 

As a programmer who knows how easy it is to create a randomized sequence on computer systems and see that this problem is resilient for years, I think it's intentional. Not a bug but a feature. Result of a complex alghoritm, probably some sort undisclosed agreement between certain record brands etc.

 

Then I suggest "continue last random" feature. When I return to my random playing playlist some time after, I don't want it to shuffle again but to continue from its last shuffle. This way, maybe I can finally listen many songs I've painfully curated in years but couldn't find a chance to hear again even I'm monthly paying for this service.

 

Thanks.
