Subject: Feature request: radio shuffle

Hi Dean,

I am still enjoying my SLIMP3 as much as I did when I first got it. It's a wonderful device. Hey I have 
a feature request I want to share with you.

Is it possible to extend the shuffle options with an option I dubbed "Radio Shuffle"? Radio Shuffle 
should shuffle the playlist in a way a radiostation builds up a playlist. I think they obey these two 
rules:
- You hear the second song of the same artist not until a song has been played of all the other 
artists in the playlist.
- You hear a second song from the same album of the same artist not until a song has been played 
of all the other albums of the artist, except of course for various artists albums

This should lead to an optimal varied and surprising listening experience. Like listening to the 
radio.

What do you think?

Kind regards,

Guido

Unassigned bugs cannot have a priority.
