Wired talks about the random shuffling of large music libraries. I have been embracing the randomness for a while now. I have even invented wacky schemes to support my habit.
I agree with the comment in the wired piece : "I like the sensation though."
Yes, I definitely like the sensation. This is not to say I don't listen to albums all the way through sometimes.
I think one part of it is that I have hard time finding the motivation to listen to specific pieces of music, even though I enjoy them. The computer makes the hard choices for me.
