If you care about audio fidelity, as opposed to the "vinyl-ness" of the sound, vinyl is worse:

Obviously, if you want the most vinyl sound around, vinyl is the only way to get that. However, if you want maximum fidelity to the original audio source, vinyl has inherent limitations later formats do not.

True, but those limitations made it so, you had to have a decent mixing engineer do the mixing job. Nowadays, many CDs (which are supposed to be non-compressed) are actually crap mixed.
