my dad has a huge collection of CDs he started in the 80s. and he's not gonna stop buying every single CD that his favourite bands release.
he rips them onto his ipod and his phone. great way to efficiently own music and get some pretty cool artwork.
so from what i can tell, no one (that i know of) buys CDs to play them out of a playback device, just to own your library.
Unless you really want them, make sure you let your dad know that you don't want it to be your responsibility to deal with them after he dies. My dad had a huge LP and CD collection. Like a wall of LPs and a wall of CDs. It was mostly things I didn't want and I had a lot of trouble selling them off. A lot of them ended up either with friends or, at last resort, Goodwill.
I agreed to take care of getting rid of it all after he died and it was a huge mistake.
