Apple IDs cannot be merged or deleted. You can switch your usage to another Apple ID if you wish. However, any purchases made under the old Apple ID cannot be transferred to the new Apple ID, so you will not be able to update or re-download them. Under the new Apple ID you will have to re-purchase them all.
