Old cd players just had play, eject, next, prev etc.
and the cd drive had audio outputs.
Now that cd drives is on sata, thoose audio outputs
does not exist any more, so thoose programs doesn't
work any more.
Is that any current cd player that is simple like the
old ones that works with current cd drives ?
E.g. there is too many clicks in clementine to just
play a cd.

I use audacious. There is one of the plugins that you can activate
that simply adds two menu items, "Play disc" and "Queue disc".

We're working on something like this right now at KTQA, but it's a low
priority project.
Basically, taking SATA optical players and connecting them to a small
SBC with a handful of buttons and a display to create a CD experience
our DJs will be familiar with. We're assuming we'll have to write
something custom against libmpv.
There's still a lot of broadcast CD players out there, but keeping them
alive economically has been difficult. Being able to use stock optical
players we can essentially find all day-- and are still being
manufactured-- will be a help in the future.

Yes, something like that, but for a differnt kind of users.

There seems to be a decline in optical disc technology.
From a local distributer I can still order cd-r and
dvd-r bulk, but
they have dropped jewel and dvd cases from their product line.
CD-labels and and cases is beginning to be harder and more expensive
to find.
I guess spotify, netflix, smartphones and the like have made physical
cd/dvd's less attractive.

I don't use spotify or a smartphone. But digital downloads (e.g. bandcamp)
have certainly made physical media less attractive to me. I still have 4-5
moving boxes of CDs, left sealed after moving into this house 3+ years ago.
Piles of useless plastic, mostly.

If I record the local choir performing together with professional,
that is ok as long the recording isn't on the net and that is easier
to accomplish if they get cd's instead of a download address.
So, phsical media has some value and cd-r is the cheapest of the lot.
