Dictionary.com has an entry for "image" that I guess is authoritative:


# Computer Science. An exact replica of the contents of a storage device, such as a hard disk, stored on a second storage device, such as a network server.


So according to this, a CD is an image, after all.
I don't think this is a very good definition, however.


Certainly not, that would put us back to square one.
