This feature is definitely one of the best things Winamp had going for it. All other music apps seem to have the idea of "adding to the play queue", but Winamp would allow you to enqueue songs in your playlist to play next, before going back to shuffling the playlist.
This is an incredibly simple thing, too, but it really defines usability. For myself personally I really ant the latest songs to play more frequently than the older songs. And when I am driving with other people they may ask if i have certain songs - so being able to enqueue before driving would be great. This is the same with parties (i plug my phone in to a speaker system) and I like to play the more popular music first before it goes to my normal playlist .
How MM Beta current sits:
* Can play a playlist in order or shuffled.
* Can play in order and drag certain songs up to put them in the order you want to play them.
* IF you want to play songs in order and then shuffle, you would have to organise the play order you want and then when those songs are finished open the app and click shuffle.
How MM Beta should be:
*Can play a playlist in order or shuffled.
*If you want to play songs in order, hold them down and choose "play next" or "enqueue". Will enqueue multiple songs in order from first chosen to last chosen
*when enqueue list finsihes playing, playlist will revert back to shuffle status.
