Make it a tri-state, not a check box. Exclude, Include, or Ignore for each genre. (With precedence in that order.)

My collection is tagged with multiple genres.  So I'll have say:

TrackA: Canadian;Folk
TrackB: Canadian;Spoken Word
TrackC: Folk
TrackD: Rock

So a reasonable random play setting, to include all tracks except B, might be:

Canadian: ignore
Folk: include
Rock: include
Spoken Word: exclude

For lots of extra points, let us save "random playlists" by name with the random mode (track/album/artist) and the genre list, so we can quickly browse to a preset playlist depending on the kind of party we're throwing. That'd be the feature that finally makes me upgrade my slimserver.
