Debian is not a business. We are also heavily committed to freedom. This
is not really compatible with selling non-free music.

Now, if you wanted to make a service that allows DFSG-free music to be
easily found and downloaded ("installed"), that would be a welcome
addition, though even that would not necessarily really be what the core
of Debian is: producing an operating system.
