Wait does it actually, I feel like that seems silly

Why are there always answers like these when someone asks/criticizes something about Sony missing simple stuff?
Games' OST for Sony's own games are released in CD (because the quality is way better than what they sell you in the PS Store) and you can't even play them on their console.
Also I don't get this comment.
I cant speak for Sony, but I am sure youre literally the only person to have ever put an audio CD into a PS4.

Or just rip them to your hard drive for free?You heard it here folks!Throw you CD collections to your trash bins and buy all your albums again digitally because what the hell "it's not 1999 anymore".
The PS4 also doesn't play VHS tapes.

I think this is really the reasonSo when people came asking for PS1 support they would have an easy out.
If you asked me why any product, from any company, can't play CDs in 2017, I'd give you the same answer: Because audio CDs are a dead format. Put them on the pile with cassette tapes, 8-tracks, laser discs, and yes, VHS tapes.
Yes, they'll continue to manufacture them for years. I understand that.

Because its not 1999 anymore
Wow. I forgot that on Dec 31 1999 all my hundreds of c.d.s (many distributed by Sony) magically disappeared into the ether. I don't buy c.d.s anymore either, but to pretend like nobody owns any c.d.s is pretty ignorant.

Oh wait they are but nobody wants to admit that yet.
Probably due to low demand. It's stupid, but I'd rather have backwards compatibility if I could TBH

When my PS4 collector's editions come with audio CDs and my PS4 can't even play them, I get slightly angry at Sony*
*because believe it or not I ran out of devices that can play CDs, my PS3 can't read them anymore and my PC has no disc drive

They still make CD players.

Is this the worst first post ever?
If you save 50¢ on each optical drive that adds up over time. Also, less complexity and one less point of failure.
PS1 games were coded onto CD's, that's why any PS3 could play a PS1 game regardless whether or not it was backwards compatible or not. Having CD compatibility with the PS4 would allow PS1 games to work on the PS4.

The Xbox one doesnt play VHS, illogical as it seems, but do play CDs doesnt it? Weird.The PS4 also doesn't play VHS tapes.
Wasnt it to push people towards their music streaming service they had available for the PS4?
