Since almost no one has a CD player anymore, why do so many organizations give you a CD with music as a gift for making a donation.
I haven’t seen that in years. You’re patronizing businesses that are out of touch.
Because they have a ton of them to get rid of

@mcarley - Ironically one organization that does this is the public TV station when it has a fund raiser for its educational TV shows 
They tend to be behind the times. They probably also cater to an older audience that could still be using CDs.
I’d suspect this is tha answer
CD provides a nice place for an autograph. So when we went to hear TG Sheppard a few weeks ago, we hadda have his “new” album (from a couple of years ago) to get that autograph. Of course first thing I did was rip the tracks and put on my media server.
There are still some usages too. BIL on Kodiak built a new windoze 7 system a while back and I tried to help him nuke it. It’s good fun erasing windoze 
Anyway his system is so old the bios will not boot a USB stick, so I am stuck with burning optical media and mailing to him. Couple of DVD and one CD just in case he has trouble with DVD.
I was at a record store a couple weeks ago, they also sold cassettes and CD’s. I asked the clerk how much they pay for CD’s and he said nothing, they don’t want them.
