I write a music blog where I write about the first five songs that shuffle produces from my library, and my observation is that shuffle seems to prefer the first track of albums more than I would expect. I’ll note that yes, in the abstract, you’d expect more track 1s than any other slot because every album has a track 1, and if the algorithm is to randomly pick an album and then pick a track, you would expect track 1s to be the tallest item in the histogram. However, even correcting for that, it still appears that I’m getting more track 1s than I would expect. While I haven’t sat down to do the detailed analysis, I’m hoping to get some more information on how the shuffle works, if possible.
