Determining if the traffic is music versus movies would be cost-prohibitive
(and near impossible?) so it would be easier to just block all/most of it.

As much as I like BitTorrent (Azureus runs on my main system at home
24/7/365), I do believe in the ability to block or throttle it in
situations where it impedes the network access of others such as at a
university.
