AFAIK realaudio data streams don't use HTTP but a realaudio protocol on
a different TCP or UDP port. You could block these at your firewall.

Blocking .ram files in squid might work though as these files are handed
over to the realaudio player. The tell the player where the actual
streaming audio is to be found.
