What are the content-types (aka MIME-types) for sound bank and package files?

We're modifying our file loading system to use content-type meta-data (rather than file extension) to determine the type of data being loaded in a file (re: RFC 6838). In order to support loading of our audio assets, we need a content-type for our .bnk and .pck files.

Has AK registered any content-types for these file types, or otherwise have a recommended content-type string (eg. something like "audio/vnd.wwise.bank" or "application/vnd.ak.package")?

Thanks

I propose you use "application/vnd.wwise" followed by the file extension:

application/vnd.wwise.bnk
application/vnd.wwise.wem
application/vnd.wwise.pck
