Records from the past were recorded with tape and analogue equipment and recorded on vinyl. It then went to digital recordings on CD with digital recording gear.

Apart from what others have said there is another aspect, and that is the “ritual” of playing a vinyl. Since there is a bit of effort to play a vinyl it softly forces you to play an album from start to finish. This provides a contrast to the modern way of listening to music where play queues and skipping is quick and easy. CDs are sort of in between these two extremes. It’s quicker to skip songs, and change CDs although not as easy as Spotify.
