Ugh! :-) Wherever it goes, don't use the word "example", because I
already know that, and don't use the word "content", because it hardly
means anything.
How about /home/Shared/Music/, /home/Shared/Pictures/, and so on?

How about:
For the audio files, leave them in /Users/Shared/Music, and add them to
Rhythmbox's library for each account.
For the other types, copy them to the Pictures/ or Documents/ subfolder
of each new home folder. They're not nearly as big as the audio files,
so multiple copies of them won't matter.
And ensure that any images suitable as a desktop background are present
in the Desktop Background Preferences list by default.
