With photography being one of my other hobbies, I would explain it like this:
Vinyl is the equivalent of film photography and developing it yourself. It's more complicated, needs to be done just right, and more equipment parts and pieces that need to work just right together for best results. However, just like film, you can achieve a kind of organic/realistic results that's almost impossible to achieve otherwise. However these days convenience and "good enough" works for most people. If Vinyl = film photography then high end digital = digital SLRs and Mp3 players = point and shoot cameras. You can apply the same idea to cooking. My theory is that generally the longer it takes to cook the better it tastes but many people would rather heat up a frozen dinner or go to McDonalds.
When I have a bigger place and more money I intend to buy a vinyl/tube setup with custom speakers. However, for most people CD comes very close for much less effort and fiddling. I appreciate that last iota of results that come with the extra effort and find it very rewarding.
