I have a Logitech webcam C615 that I'm trying to hook up with my Mac mini (2011). This may sound silly, but is there a way I can install the software without having an external CD drive? I had no idea that it came with a CD for installation or I would have made the 30 mile trip to the Apple store. 🙁

Several options:
- Remote Disk (using another drive over the network)
- MacBook Air SuperDrive
- other USB external drives
- Pay again and download over the App Store.
The cheapest, possibly fastest is the first option:
The license code is non-transferable from physical media to the App Store, but perhaps you could sell your old version to someone that didn't like the store restrictions to subsidize or cover the cost?
You can easily change which device is used for audio input. Just hold down ⌥ Option while clicking on the Volume menu item:
Alternatively, to get a bit more fine control, open System Preferences (found under > System Preferences…) and open the Sound preference pane:

If you have access to any other computers that do have a CD drive, you can use Drive Sharing
As Apple says,
