Well, obviously MP3 CD players aren't going to play it, but certainly you _could_ put it on CD 
. The benefits are better quality and more efficient files - a file of the same size will be better quality in ogg, or the same quality will be smaller.
Plus, since I buy most of my music instead of downloading it - not so much for the issues of legality, but just because I think it's too difficult to find a decent quality version of _any_ songs on things like Kazaa - I already have all my CD's on... CD. My ogg's and MP3's are just for listening on my computer.
My biggest preference for ogg vorbis stems from the fact that it is a completely open, free spec. No restrictions, license fees, no companies making money for doing nothing. If someone wants to write an ogg encoder, they are perfectly free to do so without fearing a law suit. So as a result, the specification ends up being better than that of MP3's.
