*60 million songs if you are in range of cell signal.

And yet, we’re lesser for it (because Spotify doesn’t understand what shuffle means)

And I still just play the same 30 favourites

Just in case someone needs to know what song it is.. Get it? Instead of time? No? Fine.

OG iPods are modifiable to 4 terabytes of memory in 2025, that’s not 60 mill songs worth, but after the first 100k songs, you won’t care.

But why, when I use the shuffle mode, does it always play the same songs?

From what i understand people don't like true random, eg the same song playing multiple times in a row. so they adjust it with an algorithm.

The only true way is to listen to my songs alphabetically.

This. It's why I still use my battered old iPod nano, and will use it until it dies.

It's hilarious that everybody mocked MS when they came out with the Zune and claimed their song storage was effectively infinite compared to iPod because it used a monthly subscription service to stream audio instead of local storage, yet here we are...

I remember when Apple rolled out the iCloud, media was calling it "amnesty for pirates" and I scratched my head over the concept, because they were trying to sell our own music back to us. My conclusion was that tech media of the day was just trying to get people to accept paying one more subscription fee.

And it continues every day.

Enjoy that instead of a house or reasonable healthcare or free education or logic or reason
