A system and method for extracting information, such as metadata, from a media object, such as a multimedia object or a streaming media object, utilizes a single device (44) to extract the information from a plurality of media objects having different formats. The media object is examined to determine its format (40). The media object is then provided to a multi-format extractor (44), wherein information is extracted from the media object in accordance with the appropriate format. The extracted information is compiled (46) into a singular data structure, such that the format of the universal data structure is compatible with a plurality of media object formats (30).
