Comment (by DrewAPicture):

 Reiterating from [comment:ticket:23572:8] and [comment:ticket:23282:49],
 it seems like there's a lot of duplicated code in these `get_content_*`
 functions. Had you considered a more generic approach such as maybe
 `get_content_media( 'audio|video|link|url|etc' )`? We should be careful
 about creating specifically-named getters because we'd lock ourselves into
 the pattern of having to create brand new functions for every new kind of
 supported media.

 Also happy to contribute with patch(es) :).
