I decided to take a completely un-scientific approach and do a poll:
http://arstechnica.infopop.net/OpenTopic/page?q=Y&a=tpc&s=50009562&f=96509133&m=263094309

So far the majority of users are displeased (some more than others) with the
random play function. 

Several have noted the "Same few songs" syndrome we've been talking about.
