Why not use your PC to covert them all to MP3s?
Edit: btw if I'm not mistaken, any DVD or Blu ray player will play regular audio CDs.
Not the best sound quality out of the top players but definitely the most comfortable for plane rides. I prefer the clear balanced sound of the Bose also compared to others
Pros: $70 cheaper than the 700
Foldable so takes up less space if you are using it for travel
Cons:
Micro USB charging
No quick charge, takes about 2 hours to fully charge and lasts 20 hours on a single charge
700
Pros: Better mics for call quality, better than the QC 35 II
USB C and fast charging 15 mins will give you approx 2 hours and full charge lasts the same 20 hours.
Cons:
Non foldable so the carrying case takes more space
The choice between the 2 ultimately will come down to how you want to use it apart from the comfort factor which is subjective and I can'tt really say which one will fit you better.
I own the QC 35 II and I wear glasses and I find them comfortable but I dont actually wear them for more than a couple of hours at a time. I am sure you will start feeling the headphones if you are wearing it for prolonged period like 8-10 hours. I am sure any headphone at hour will be somewhat uncomfortable.
If you are planning on using it mostly at home and for calls/meetings then probably the 700 is better choice.
You will charge it more frequently since you are using it for your work calls, so quick charge is welcome.
Also the size wont matter because you are not carrying it.
If you are actually going to use this for travel or you are mostly buying it for ANC and listening to stuff and just occassional phone calls, then save the $70 and get the QC 35II
There is a reason why bose still makes and sells both models, they are not a replacement of each other but targetted to different audience. I am not sure when they came out with the QC 35 II why bose did not update the micro USB to USB-C?
Also like me if you are using an apple device, micro USB and USB C does not matter because you have to carry a separate charger anyway and cant use the phone charger.
Hope this helps.

Most of my stuff is digital. I'm looking for a CD player primarily for the kids to listen to and it's more difficult for them to navigate the digital stuff. Also, we get CD's for the kids from the library which we can't burn.
Glad to see the QC35 has BT included - getting two. One for me, one for an Xmas gift.
Thanks OP. +1 and repped!

The QC35 is also a cabled headset, so getting a BT adapter is a nice upgrade, particularly since the headset itself is discounted enough to help cover the cost. There are several QC25 adapters on Amazon, I don't personally know if they're physically compatible with the QC35 or not - I don't have a QC35 here to compare - but it is definitely worth looking into.
