Bear in mind that it isn't necessary to take any action for your music CD to be protected. Copyright protection is automatic, as soon as work of sufficient originality is "fixed in a tangible medium, perceptible to human eye, machine reader or other device".
If you want the additional protection that a formally registered copyright will provide, contact the copyright office in your country for the proper procedure and fee amounts.
