I don't think so...

This isn't the same thing :)

Ahem...:)

I've certainly seen it play the same song fairly twice in quick succession 
(ie, twice in one day on a 50 hour playlist).

However, from a quick look at playlist.c, there is a generate_shuffle_list 
which implies it generates a list internally to do this.  Any chance one of 
the developers could confirm or refute this?
