Others have already tried harder, so I currently do not see this as Debian's biggest risk. ;) But seriously, there is the sound-theme-freedesktop package which is pulled in by all "big" desktop environments and contains a lot of sounds that could be used as "demo music". Unfortunately, the sound files are rather well hidden in the file system in /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo. Furthermore, at least in GNOME it is possible to test the speakers in the Audio panel in the system settings application. So, no, I don't think that we need to install actual demo *music* in Debian (and I would consider it as bloat to have megabytes of music worth several minutes on my hard drive as a consequence of installing an operating system without having asked for it) but agree that it could be made easier to find and test the sound samples that are already there.
