Was this recently (say, after 2014?) Try finding a computer with an optical drive today. You need to get an external USB device today, modern cases don’t have external 5-inch bays.
Another problem is all the music apps and services that we’re supposed to use according to the music industry are streaming services: Spotify doesn’t have a CD-player feature; it wouldn’t surprise me if today’s new-computer-user had no idea that CD-ripping was even possible.
It was before 2014 and we still had ways of either playing optical content or ripping the media and storing it ourselves.
