Q: When I have a play list with a limited number of items populated “randomly”, are higher-rated songs chosen more often, or is it truely random?
– Andrew
A: Any random sampling that a smart playlist makes is strictly random.
There is no preference given to higher-rated songs, unless you’ve explicity required it through the use of a rule for “My Rating” or chosen “highest rating” in the “Limit to:” condition.
If you’re actually looking for a way to choose higher-rated songs more often in a “random” sampling, Party Shuffle has this feature.
