As an interesting sidenote, this was brought up a while back in a forum
about the Phatbox. The Phatbox exhibits the peculiar behavior of
playing the exact same songs in random mode both forward and back. For
example if I started on song 10 of 100, then then next song in random
mode would always be 20 of 100, etc...likewise if I had started on song
10 then go to 20, hitting the back button would bring me back to song
10. The developers explained how they generated the next track - I
believe they read a value from the accumulator and added a value to
that - but that's from vauge memory.

Is the Squeezebox random in both directions? I haven't tried that mode
yet (just got the thing working yesterday!)
