No, there is no embedded metadata on CDs. The format allows for auxiliary text, but this was never (or maybe seldom) implemented. The disks do contain an embedded code on each track that is used for radio station royalty collection, called the ISRC code. However, these are not used as keys to the metadata databases. Instead, the databases work off of the number of tracks and the length of each track (in units of frames, each frame is 1/75 of a second).
Are there any more useless factoids that I should disgorge? :-)
