You can buy LPs at Target and Barnes and Nobles now. If you think its only 20-somethings that are fueling that think again. Those companies stock stuff they think they can sell.
Audiophiles buy LPs too, so do old people (like me) that still have their record players. I recently found a copy of Loreena McKennet's LP of her live show in Spain (originally only on DVD), recorded in a castle. Got it at Barnes and Nobles...
The only reason LP production went down in the late 80s and early 90s was because the record labels wanted to phase them out. It was not because the market wasn't there.

Yes you are right about why vinyl went away in the first place. But I think demand (not suppliers) revived it. As to the demographic makeup of the current demand, I don't know how it breaks down.
Well its always been the kids that drive the market. Its been that way since the 1960s at least.
