I want something that can  
[ul]  
[li]Play WMA[/li][li]Share the CPU[/li][li]Import file ratings from Windows Media Player[/li][/ul]

I’d like something with strong play listing features. I want to be able to quickly assign music to a play list, but I also want to be able to quickly see what play lists any piece of music is a part of. ie when the file is playing, it should show the ID3 tags, and that the piece is part of X, Y, and Z playlists.

Share the CPU (multi-tasker to the nth degree) and play WMA are the must-have requirements.

Thanks
