Sony probably figured nobody's still spinning CDs these days, so the PS5 focuses more on modern formats and online streaming.

The PS5 can't play CDs because Sony focused on digital media and new tech like Ultra HD Blu-ray and streaming services. CD compatibility just didn't make the cut!

I tried popping a CD into my PS5 out of curiosity, and nothing happened. Guess it's just not in Sony's game plan anymore.
