Most new computers don't have an optical disc drive, customers don't
request it and if they want one, they can buy one and add it.
USB is available every time, thumb disks with 16 GB are available at
the supermarket and can be used for many purposes.

The images provided are hybrid, they can be used on CD/DVD (if the
image is small enough, e.g. netinstall) or USB thumb disks.
Just write it there using dd.
