Digital IR using a filter is fine, depending the camera, as previously stated, can effect how long of exposure times you get. Example with Canon 30D expect around 1second in broad daylight.
You can test your cameras IR sensitivity by playing with a remote the uses IR light to send signals to your tv. Simply compress a button and photograph the front of the front of the remote, if there's a light there bingo! Your camera has shitty IR filter making IR way easier, though it could fuck up other normal shots >_>
Another option is to get your camera converted to shot IR only. There's various websites that do it, but for most of us buying a second camera of that quality for only IR is a bit extreme.
If you have multiple sized lenses consider the Cokin filters, though i have had some glare problems with it when I have sunlight in the 11am-2pm setting.

color filters still have their place in digital photography to give certain effects, like a red filter to darken/gradient the sky, kind of like a polarizer does but more extreme, and then you compensate for the color differences in photoshop or convert to BW
There are certain effects hard to achieve without color filters, it's just most people don't bother or poorly fake it.
