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.

If it's stationary (lifting, benching, etc.) or just running: I'd say yes.
If it involves a lot of jumps and/or position changes (HIIT style): probably not. Keep in mind: although very lite, they are fairly bulky.

I have these as well as the sony "competitor" the XB900 not 1000. These are great, I have worn them for 12+ hours easily more than 100 days and they are very comfortable especially comparing them to the sony. The noise cancellation is great. It was a game changer for sleeping at truck stops. Also makes car noise go away. The one I bought came with a great hard case although I'm not sure about refurbished... Comparing it to the sony, my ears not only feel more comforable but also are less sweaty. The quality of sound is great, although if I am taking time to watch a movie and wear a headset, I reach for the sonys because the bass is barely noticeably different. But if I didn't know any better and only had one choice then I would be more than happy with the bose. There is also no equilizer to adjust the sound for bose but I'm pretty sure whatever it's connected to will have it's own equilizer. Also these connect to 2 devices at a time which is great. If the battery runs out, it always surprises me how much they recharge with little time.
So if I'm in the middle of a 12 hour flight with a drained internal battery - there is no way to quickly go back to "noise cancelled" environment...
