retrieve from the memory, the user preference associated with the user profile;

input/output circuitry configured to:

receive a selection of a first media asset and a second media asset from the plurality of media assets for presentation on a user device, wherein each of the first media asset and the second media asset comprises a video stream and an audio stream;

wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:

process a manifest associated with the first media asset and a manifest associated with the second media asset, wherein the manifest associated with the first media asset is different from the manifest associated with the second media asset;

generate the playlist based on determining a plurality of preferred audio segments in the audio stream of each of the first media asset and the second media asset based on the manifest associated with the first media asset, the manifest associated with the second media asset and the user preference; and

generate for presentation on the user device, the video streams for the first media asset and the second media asset corresponding to the determined plurality of preferred audio segments of the playlist, wherein the determined plurality of preferred audio segments are presented in sequential order provided by the playlist while presenting the video streams for the first media asset and the second media asset.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to generate the playlist of the determined plurality of preferred audio segments by combining one or more preferred audio segments from the first media asset with one or more preferred audio segments from the second media asset.

13. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to generate the playlist of the determined plurality of preferred audio segments by interleaving one or more first preferred audio segments and one or more second preferred audio segments to create a combined preferred audio stream.

14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the control circuitry is configured to interleave one or more first preferred audio segments and one or more second preferred audio segments to create the combined preferred audio stream by arranging each of the one or more preferred audio segments of the first media asset and the second media asset in a sequence to create a storyline matching the user preference.

15. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is configured to generate the playlist based on determining the plurality of preferred audio segments in the audio stream of each of the first media asset and the second media asset and based on the user preference, by

retrieving a first set of metadata corresponding to each audio segment of the first media asset and the second media asset;

identifying from the user preference a second set of user metadata; and

determining, from metadata for each audio segment of the first media asset and the second media asset, the one or more preferred audio segments matching the second set of user metadata.
