Couldn't they just make it completely random without repeats until all songs are played or something?

Having multiple songs by the same artist play after each other, or the same music style is also perceived as not random.

And once you factor in that, you are at what Spotify is doing now.

Then it's per definition not completely random.

It is. It's just a different kind of random

Choose a random song from the kist each time VS Make a truly random ordering of the given playlist

It's a different kind of random, one which is very much not completely random.

It's better for it to not be completely random though.

The ordering is completely random tho? I mean, now this is just semantics. The ordering of the songs are not made to space out nearby songs or anything. In that sense it is completely randomone of all permutations(^50^P50) of songs.

I was thinking more like "remove a random thing from a group" than "point at a random thing from a group"
