Winamp's shuffle function sucks

[Davegod75]

I have a playlist of 315 songs and I swear i hear the same 30-40 over and over again?

is there a way to fix this?

It seems like most randomizers in audio programs suck. I'm not sure really why... but I've noticed the same thing.

randomize playlist, then just play through.

It sucks on some commercial CD-MP3 players too. One car player demo model I put a disc in wouldn't change the folder - there were about 20 folders of MP3's, and it took it 5 tries just to go to another folder. After that one song, it went right back to the one it was just in.
I've heard that there's a chip that can create truly random numbers by listening for to electron noise; be nice if more electronics employed such a chip, so that when you want random, you get it.

Options>preferences>playlist then adjust the shuffle morph rate.

I think it sucks as well. I dont think it is "random" at all.
