Is it good policy to
allow WMP and iTunes and disallow Napster and say, BearShare, or would
it be
best to just restrict them all entirely?  Thank You

Policy is something you need to formulate with management.
Why do they need media players in the first place, and if they do, simply
lock out network access for them?
Unnecessarily locking down users only encourages them to find ways to break
out.
