Does knowing that they are responsible for creating their own material impact your appreciation of them?

Yes! It is always something that makes an artist more honest in my eyes.

Would you be less likely to buy their CDs if they did not write/cowrite all their own songs?

Absolutely.

Keeping in mind that taste is subjective, would you rather have a song that they wrote even if it was not as "good" as a comparable song written by someone else?

I became a fan because they are not just good in my opinion. If they were I wouldn't be a fan. But as you said that's subjective.

Or would you rather have a song someone else wrote that they sounded good playing than a ______________ (fill in the blank with a song you don't like, for instance All About Loving You for me)?

Sounds like covers to me. I have nothing against cover songs.
Seriously, nobody can write hits only, so no.
