I'm making an app that will play audiobooks synced with iTunes. Is there a way my player can remember the playback position? Or do I need to implement this myself with some sort of database?

An object used to play audio media items from the device's Music app library. Create an instance of a music player to play media items in your app. There are two types of music player: An application music player plays music locally within your app. It is not aware of the Music app’s now-playing item, nor does it affect the Music app’s state.
The system music player employs the built-in Music app on your behalf. On instantiation, it takes on the current Music app state, such as the identification of the now-playing item. If a user switches away from your app while music is playing, that music continues to play.
Before a music player can produce sound, it needs a playback queue. You provide the music player with its playback queue, which specifies the media items to be played. Sets a music player’s playback queue based on a media query. Sets a music player’s playback queue using a media item collection.
The key is to set the current playback time to the bookmark time of the mpmediaitem before playing.
Here's an example:
[self.player setQueueWithItemCollection:self.collection];
self.player.currentPlaybackTime = [self.collection.items[0] bookmarkTime];
[self.player play];
