Well some of us have a lot of legacy silver discs. I doubt if too many young people are buying any sort of CD spinner though.
Of course these sales figures are revenue not unit based. So as CDs are cheaper than LPs, CDs still outsell vinyl in units. The margin between the media has reduced and CD is now a shadow of its glorious past as you say.
The real story is, and has been for the past few years, the replacement of consumer owned music collections by streaming services. In that context vinyl really isn't doing all that well and remains of minority interest.
