I donno about MP3 player etc but you can disable download to USB on same ports using a software called Waterwall / PcPlus. This we have been using and is tested. Another application Websense also has some features like this.

For instance, only mice and printers should work when connected to a USB port but flash drives, other mp3 players etc should not work when connected to the same USB ports. In operating system terms, we are looking at Windows XP professional sp2 and Windows 2000 sp4.
