Newer stuff like Bluetooth, CarPlay, etc. might also work.

Without any hard data to back this up, I believe there's still a surprising amount of (demographically expected) users who prefer to burn their audio to CD to use in the car.
Even if you don't have an auxiliary jack or bluetooth or ... you can get audio from your phone or mp3 player to your car fairly easily as long as you have an FM radio.

There are college graduates younger than my car so I don't have any "fancy" things like an auxiliary jack. Instead, I use a little FM transmitter for when I need to get audiobooks to my car audio. They cost less than $15 (I think I got mine for less than $5) and work ok as long as you can find some "dead" space where you don't have a lot of interference. High quality sound? No. Understandable? Yes. That's good enough for me.

If you don't have an FM radio you can get a small bluetooth speaker and use it with your phone. I have done that a couple times and it works fine too.
