Do you think sample tracks (if even provided) will be/should be audio only, shown by trailer (a la GHII My Chemical Romance Pack), or playable?

And if playable how should it be handled?

I think a trailer is a good idea, this way you get to see the song in action and see how it looks for each instrument. Now I guess they should show it on expert for each instrument so that you know exactly how it will be at its fullest extent.

I think audio is all thats going to happen at best, but thats good enough.

Trailer. I think all of us are going to know the songs. Looking at them are the only way to get a feel for the songs.

I think a trailer would be fine. Because, I mean, I would like to know the difficulty. Honestly, who actually expected Jordan to be THAT hard?

Definitely trailer... I watched the trailer for the DLC on GH2 the other day... if they wanted to save time they could just run the song on practice mode and let it play through... I don't need them to decide what part of the song is "most interesting" and they don't need to take the time to record a playthrough of it either. Finish the note chart, run it through a band practice mode so we can hear the track and see the notes, and let us see the whole song.

Obviously this only works if they don't have some practical limit on storage/bandwidth they are allowed to use for free demo videos.
