I like mosaic function of "vcd" package. I have played around it. I
have found out that mosaic plot  data table is 2-dimension does not
stretch when you enlarge a mosaic plot. It is okay when data table is
3 or more dimension. The first one is of 3-dimension table case, and
the second one is 2-dimension. With the first plot, you can drag
window to enlarge a plot. With the second, I cannot.

Not really: note that the images resizes correctly, it just keeps its square
aspect-ratio.

vcd is so strongly modularized that it can be difficult to find the information
required. Check strucplot, where it says:

strucplot
keep_aspect_ratio logical indicating whether the aspect ratio should be fixed or not. If unspecified, the default is TRUE for two- dimensional tables and
FALSE otherwise.

So try

mosaic(music, keep_aspect_ratio=FALSE)

but think over if that's really what you want. In most cases it makes
sense to keep the square aspect for 2x2 cases
