AFAIK, if you have two regular servers, they split up the download simultaneously on a chunk by chunk basis. So, I guess 'random', but it's not random as in newsbin tossing dice. Newsbin uses every connection made available to it and just grabs chunks as fast as it can. I don't believe the order the servers are in are relevant.
