Thanks, after some more research I came across this as well and decided
to implement it

Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] OT: WMA Files

R2 gives you the new File Screen templates, which let you allow/deny
users saving files of particular file extensions to network drives.
You can either create a "soft screen" that will only log violations,
or a "hard screen" that will actually prevent the user from saving the
errant file.

It's only based on the .??? file extension, so a savvy user could
rename song.wma to song.txt and save it. (But if that behaviour were
taking place, I would consider it more of an HR issue than a technical
one.)

Technet mag did a nice write-up of it in May:
