Selling of CD [any product]  do not attract any Service Tax.

So you can not collect Service Tax on its selling.

Break up of CD’s Price is not required.

 

Separate billing is strongly advised. As long as  the supplier has billed you for goods and services, you hold the title of both the the goods and services. Therefore, when you supply the same to your customers, the service might be deemed to have been provided by you and same might  become taxable in your hands as well. Basic exemption of Rs.10L is available if you are not using others trade mark. VAT on sale of goods is certain.
