Here's an article which explains exactly why vinyl sounds the way it does, why digital recordings actually capture recorded sound more accurately, and why vinyl seems to have its own charm in spite of it.
And here's some more points about the numbers that show that, yes, Digital formats sound closer to what a performance actually sounds like.
And now for something from Popular Science.
These links are great, I thought I had made it clear in the OP that I enjoy purchasing/spinning records for reasons outside of fidelity and also outside of vinyl purism, but this is fair for certain arguments I might have to make against why I buy records the way I do. I would like to follow up with Parquet Courts "Death Will Bring Change" off of Wide Awake, a record I own, doesn't seem to exist in a different medium. Nothing you're trying to seat me with, this is not a criticism of your point.
