Thanks for the quick reply. It's not critical, but I'd got used to the behaviour, and I still think it's what I prefer. My usage is simply that I stop players (e.g. when I leave the room) by turning them off (so they show the clock), and when I start it again I like the music to pick up from where it stopped.
This also happens to be how the other devices that I listen to music on behave - iPod and in-car mini-disc. I guess I could achieve a similar effect by using pause rather than switching it off, and using an idle screensaver to show the clock; but I think switching it off is cleaner and more intuitive. How about an option to keep position within track when switched off? What do others think about this behaviour?
