This has reminded me of my old MP3 player, I think it was made by Archos, that had two shuffle modes: "shuffle" & "random".

The "random" mode would happily play songs from the playlist multiple times, even directly after one another; "shuffle" on the other hand would never play a song more than once per playlist. When I first got it I was fascinated by this difference – I still wonder why they included both modes.
