Is that just a USA thing ?

Plenty here in the UK e.g.

No, you can get affordable CD players. The lower end Denons are quite
good and don't cost much for example.

For the OP: nothing wrong with using a DVD player as a CD player in
terms of sound quality. My only annoyance with them is that usually they
are kind of slow when accessing or skipping tracks compared to CD
players.

Yes, that's really annoying. They're slow overall, right from
start-up. Plus they keep switching themselves off every twenty
minutes.
