I am not familiar with the inner workings of DVD file systems.
Video DVDs that I have burned have an assortment of visible files
when look at them under Windows.  I just put a DVD burner on
my main Linux box and plan to learn something about video editing
on Linux.  My Pinnacle video editing software on Windows has
great features and a great interface, too bad it crashes all the time.

You can put a data file system on a DVD and use it to back up files.
When you do this, you can see the files just like with a data CD.

Audio CD's have some other type of organization, a bit of poking around
on the web will show some good tutorials on this.  I have never managed
to do anything useful with the files obtained by pulling the files right 
off the CD with file manager on Windows.  I tend to use a ripper to
get the songs off my CD's and then put them on my MP3 player.  I can
then keep the originals in a cool dry place (my safe).
