streaming has a history of being data intrusive. and buying from most online stores show itemized music receipts to the credit card company (and don’t typically allow giftcards). buying in person is nice, but harder to get new music.
any tips?

99% of new PCs lack a CD drive.
You can buy a USB CD drive for relatively little cash
Your local library may even lend one or have a machine with a drive. Probably intended for digitising stuff and writing discs from them, but if there’s software, it’ll work in reverse as well.
You don’t have to buy an entire new pc for that.
you can buy and install one yourself, or get a usb one for ~$20
If someone wants to put together a physical CD collection then <$50 is a small investment for a external CD drive. Thrift store CDs are cheap but it still has its costs. Streaming service subscriptions add up as well.
