I'm looking for a music player for my Ubuntu Karmic desktop. I need the following features:

supports multiple playlists
remembers the playback position (file and time) for each playlist
preferably, remembers playback position even when the process is killed
lets the user adjust playback speed, without changing the pitch

I don't care if it's a GUI or command-line player or it uses a client-server model.

I've tried Rhythmbox, which doesn't have features 2., 3. and 4.

Which player would you recommend?
