Just my opinion on this:
Vinyl sounds right when done right. As a DJ there is nothing digital that touches it. Believe me I had ran Mastering quality convertors out our CDJ's on the Alpha dynacord system we had in toronto. Even the Berghain here in Germany the vinyl sound better.
""Sounds Better""
Yes that is subjective. If I was in the business to make boring but technically good records I would do something different than use tape, vinyl, etc.
Digital's biggest weakness to me is the actual convertors and the media types.
YES I finally heard Pink Floyd Dark Side of the moon in SACD and forgetaboutit. No vinyl I have topped it. I have heard also on some SACD the limitations even of tape. I can't remember what SACD it is as it is trapped in a box in Canada right now but the Symphony recording on the SACD is just scary awesome.
Point is at this period of time for me as a DJ and Producer there is just nothing as tactile, immediate, and better designed than vinyl.
As a music lover, whatever does the job the best I say.
Steak or apple, like I said. What is better? None if used right they all have their places where they outshine each other. It comes down to taste and situation.
