I play them on my computer and use a program called Audacity to "rip"
them while listening.
The CDs then get stored where I won't mess them up handling them.
Someday I might do the same for my old LPs. There's an audiophile shop
here in town that has a record cleaner that will restore them to better
than new condition, so I could play them one more time and get clean
recordings.
The cost is $5/disk, so I won't be doing it all at once.

My collection is overwhelmingly classical, and consists of about 150 CDs and
twice that many LPs.
I have no desire to spend time ripping them to alternative methods of storage.

Get rid of them all. I got rid of mine years ago because they, and the player,
took up so much space. The cases are just more useless plastic, and at London
property prices I figured I could get better value out of the square footage.
I buy most of my music on second-hand cds from German ebay dealer
Medimops. Their prices are most attractive and shipping is free. They
have a lot of stuff that wouldn't be available from the usual streaming
sites.
Once they arrive, I rip them and store them as uncompressed alac files
on a NAS. This way, I can access them at various places in our flat. The
Cds are stored in the basement.
