So long as the content/music itself is Free (licensed under an
appropriate Creative Commons deed, for example) I'd think it would be
okay for inclusion, since it's not stand-alone content; but rather data
to augment an already packaged (?) application. 

IANAL, though; and the final Yea or Nay on this is up to FESCo...
