I can't seem to create multiple instantiations of a file in the same
playlist, and I need to. After every 4 songs, for instance, I want to
play an interlude which is the same music segment. Media Jukebox does
not seem to allow me to do it (Real Jukebox does), which seems like
an artificial and unnecessary limitation. Any way around this, short
of creating 20 actual copies of the same file on my hard disk?

I ended up creating multiple copies of the file in question
(somewhat brute force, but there didn't seem to be another way).
Note that if you do this, you should name the tracks differently
(e.g., Song Name (1), Song Name (2), etc.) otherwise if you select
"Rename files from Properties" you will be attempting to create
multiple files with the same name. (RJ WILL detect this and tell
you that it can't handle it--it won't just delete the duplicates.)

Would still very much like to be able to do this without creating
multiple copies, by having RJ allow multiple instances of the same
track in a playlist. Hope a near-future enhancement will fix this.

You can have multiple instances of the same track in the "Playing Now" playlist.
And you can then export the "Playing Now" playlist to an .m3u file.
And then you could double click that file (with the right associations set of course) and your would get what you need.
Not exactly what you want but a pretty solid work-around.
