I seems like a decent compromise to defer to the native platform code

It likely makes more sense to use the MediaInfo project with some JNA
bindings (you can probably find either JNI or JNA bindings on the web) if
you need access to the metadata:

I keep thinking a pure java port of MediaInfo would be cool... but

not worth the time :-)
There are some pure Java media parsers around; the problem is that one
should check whether they are complete, that is whether they support all
the kinds of media one needs. For instance, at the moment I'm using
Jaudiotagger.
