People think vinyl sounds "better" or "warmer" because of the surface noise created by the needle meeting the record. When the CD came out in the 80's vinyl might have contained better quality audio but not anymore. In fact you can master CD's with more low end than vinyl because overloading low end on vinyl makes the needle skip.
The debate is almost over at this point. Digital is the future.

i thought you were studio trained, it isn't the surface noise, infact all of this noise is above 800hz... hmmm
edit: also putting more low ie 120hz down in cd masters can also create excess cone excursion at loud volumes in a good percentage of domestic speakers which can lead to speaker damage and outright destruction of the voice coil
the debate is not almost over, digital may very well be future but it is still along way off from the depth in frequency harmonics that analogue provides...
