Vinyl - sounds more real because you get all the pops and cracks (intentional or unintentional) as if you were sitting in the same room with the person while they are recording it.
Digital - sounds better because of clarity, and audio enhancement.
I prefer digital, for a few reasons. I'm less likely to break it, it has greater support - meaning i can go into a store and easily get something for it, and it is what I am used to. I was born in 1980, and although vinyl was big, I didn't actually get into music until cd's were everywhere.
Just a note: I do own some vinyl. Laurie Anderson, Madonna, Art of Noise, Count Bassie, Stray Cats and a few others.
