# Example outline (not full code) from pathlib import Path import random files = list(Path('/path/to/music').rglob('*.mp3')) random.shuffle(files) with open('random_playlist.m3u', 'w', encoding='utf-8') as f: for p in files: f.write(str(p) + ' ') Privacy and Local Libraries
One advantage of MP3 randomizers that operate on local files is privacy: everything happens on your device without sending listening habits to external services. If a tool uploads metadata or usage stats, check its privacy settings and opt out if necessary.
Closing Notes
An MP3 randomizer is a small tool with outsized benefits: it revives old tracks, keeps parties lively, and introduces delightful surprises. Whether you prefer a simple shuffle button in your player or a configurable, scriptable utility, randomness can be an enjoyable way to experience the music you already own.
If you want, I can: suggest existing MP3 randomizer apps, write a ready-to-run script for your platform, or draft a web-based randomizer UI — which would you prefer?
