I play vinyl because I have few thousand deeply-loved LP's. I can't afford to replace them with anything, don't WANT to replace them, and I like the way they've sounded my whole life. I'm here in VA to get the most out of that precious stash.I copy all CD's in lossless files and play these back from my dedicated music-PC and, man, they sound good- relaxed and clean. Different than LP's? Sure- but I'm not making sweeping claims any longer. I stopped straining to hear the digital nastiness years ago and glad I did. Its like straining to listen to every little pop and tick on an LP, shouting "DAMNED inner-groove distortion!" every 23 minutes or so. It's not a path to musical peace and pleasure.
Vinyl-versus-digital debate has become an institution, heck it's an industry. Don't play into the hands of various meat-heads in the general press who've jumped on it or you'll appear quaint and amusing.

I don't replace my LPs with anything either. I still own all the LPs I've ever purchased. However, I like to copy my favorite LPs to digital so I can play them on my dedicated digital music player just like all my CDs I've burned.
Hallelujah!
