A Pi would be a tad difficult to use a CD player on. Almost any older box
would be fine! There's some Dells on eBay you can grab that'd actually be

I have a small pile of these, mainly in SFF cases. It's what my bbs is on
as well as my packet node/bbs/conv/dxc, apache2, postfix/procmail/spamassassin
etc etc etc. Imagine what it could do for you!
