I like them both, however i think the size of a vinyl 10/12" makes it a format easier to manipulate...also there are alot of releases especially dance/Idm that are vinyl only. I think CDs work well for ambient and tracks with clear pecise sounds, but i find it difficult to listen to any analogue (acid) tracks on Cds, digital doesn't really work well for the analogue synth pitches (IMO). The one thing that i hate about vinyl though, is when you've just bought a new record, it's really cool, and you get bad surface noise, and then it jumps....and then the sound quality decreases quickly.
