The reason the people choose vinyl is because of its limitations. CD has a larger dynamic range, but because it's fully digital, producers can abuse that fact and make an extremely loud and dynamically compressed record and the CD will play just fine.
If you tried doing that on vinyl, the needle would fly off the record. So thanks to this physical limitation, people who produce for vinyl are forced to make a quieter, more dynamic record. It's less fatiguing on the ears, and if you want a louder record, you can simply turn up the volume.
