My default method is &quot;shuffle by album&quot;; it boggles my mind that so few music players support it.<p>Back when I used iTunes, I used &quot;party shuffle&quot; mode configured to enqueue an album at a time, which worked pretty well. Now that I use Linux, Quod Libet has a plugin that makes it automatically switch to a randomly-selected album when the current one is finished playing, which is close enough. Most of the other music players I&#x27;ve looked at just don&#x27;t understand the concept at all.
