Mixkit

High-quality stock videos that are completely free.

Https://mixkit.co is pretty sweet! The music can be used in commercial or non commercial projects for free without attribution so long as they're not DVDs, TV/Radio Broadcasts, or Video Games (which should be sufficient for demo purposes) and their SFX can be used in pretty much anything commercially or non commercially for free without attribution.

AudioJungle

Discover 637399 Royalty Free Music tracks and audio files from only $1 on AudioJungle. Buy Royalty Free Music from a Global Community of Musicians and Sound Engineers.

As for paid licensing options, there's https://www.pond5.com, https://audiojungle.net, https://www.premiumbeat.com, and https://www.soundstripe.com. These have various costs and subscription packages depending on your needs. You can find more online like this but the most important thing is to make sure the license covers your usage of the audio and that you're using tracks that aren't too overused as that can come across as tacky (we've all heard that one track that seems to be in every YouTuber's video for instance). After all the goal is to create spots on a demo that could have been from an actual project even though they're not.
