You can take them to Half Price Books and see what they offer you.

I put most of mine into CD binders. That’s dense enough storage that I don’t have to feel bad about keeping them around. For ones I might actually play, I either rip the disc, buy from a modern service if I can get a good price, or just download an ISO without feeling bad since I did pay for the thin.
