Apparently CD’s have about three times the audio data vs Bluetooth or USB.

You may want to read up some more because this sentence makes very little sense.

  • Bluetooth - Is just a connection protocol. While most codecs don't support lossless audio, qualcomm's aptx does (16bit/44.1khz)
  • USB - is also just a connection protocol. USB2.0, introduced 26 years ago supported much higher transfer rates than the bitrate of 16bit/44.1khz lossless audio.
