What we want is shuffle, where the list of songs is scrambled in a random order, then played until the list is exhausted. To begin with, it is straightforward to avoid playing the same songs until you are done with the entire list, but that is no longer random. My guess is that AM is on purpose trying to be smart about the randomization and screwing up. Adding the time at which you start your play6 should be enough to guarantee a different sequence. You might have sequences in the randomness of the generator that repeat previous ones, but as long as you start with a different song, the sequence of songs played should not repeat. It's actually not that difficult to write a shuffle that is actually random as you expect it.
