If you burn an audio CD that can be played on any CD player, no. If you simply copy .mp3 files to a CD, maybe. The tags will copy, but it depends on if the artwork is actually in the .mp3 file, or stored in a separate artwork folder, as iTunes does when you download from the iTunes Store.
You mean CD and not DVD, right? For music? Are you wanting to play it in the CD player in your car, or other CD players? If so, the answer is no, the artwork will not copy.
So you're talking about simply storing mp3 files on the DVD, not burning an audio CD that could be played in any CD player. That's the answer I was trying to find. In that case, the artwork should copy, if the artwork is stored in the .mp3 files and not in a separate folder, as I described earlier. I have noticed that in some cases, the artwork doesn't display properly in iTunes for Windows, so you end up having to re-add it to the files. This is true, even if you directly copy the files via a network, without using DVDs.
