No, most of the time I just use random mode and don't care. But sometimes I'd like to hear some things in the correct order so I just queue them. With Winamp, I'd have to double-click the first part, switch off random playback and remember to switch it on after the last part. But if the music I want to listen to doesn't come from the same CD (e.g. two symphonies of the same composer), the tracks are not behind each other in the playlist, so in Winamp, after one symphony I'd need to search for the second one. In amaroK I just queue up the tracks I want to hear in the next hour(s) and they get played, and I don't have to care to set some options back.

I don't want to diss Winamp, I've been using it for at least 5 years but amaroK gives me a much better user experience.
