It's the Birthday Paradox that would make the fact that 10,000 "random"
tracks from my collection have no duplicates impossible without a rule
filtering them out.

I'm not sure if there is a problem, either--I need to take more samples
and do more analysis.  I'm not at all saying there's a problem, yet,
just that I'm suspicious and was wondering if anyone had a similar
issue.  Like I said, I'm extremely suspicious of myself and my ability
to find patterns when none are there, but this has been going on for
two weeks now and is more suspicious than when I started.
