iTunes
The process I've used is:
- Copy the .itl library file to a safe place
- Replace the .itl file from Time Machine
- Open iTunes, then export the playlist as an .xml file
- Close iTunes, then replace the .itl file with the original one you saved
- Re-open iTunes, then import the playlist .xml file
It is way easier than the number of words above implies, and allows you to keep your current library but recover the playlist.
