New PC - Optical drives necessary?

I don't think we're at a stage yet where I'd want to install an OS directly off the internet yet but I'd appreciate the option to download it with Windows 8.
 
I still use my optical drive from time-to-time. Apart from OS installation, I'm one of the suckers that still buy most of my music and movies. I then the rip the CDs and DVDs for use on my HTPC.
