In the of mobile streaming, mobile storage or cars having usb / etc why would you still be using cds at this point? If you are doing this for a home stereo, use high quality stored audio on a pc and stream from there locally.
my car only has: cd player, radio, and aux cord. i can also get the cigarette lighter bluetooth thing, but i dont like connecting my phone to the car just to play music.
You can, there’s tons of options for splitters or direct lightning to 3.5 mm
