That can't possibly be a concern. There is a small fee assessed on each 
CD or DVD that is given to the music industry. (Canada just passed a 
law to tax all MP3 players for the same reason). So any question has 
been settled by that payment.

Not only that, copyright law would slap down any such claim to our own 
works. In fact, the copyright office allows for submitting batches of 
photos for registration on CDs or DVDs.

At least in the US it's not a problem.
