If you want to delete an apple ID you must have full access to it. (how else can apple know that it is the legitimate user requesting deletion)

All purchases made using an Apple ID are tied to the ID. Delete the ID and you will need to download them using your new ID.  Make sure you sign out from the places in the link before deleting the ID. If you fail to sign out of your device before deleting the ID, the device may become useless.
